I'm Kyle Winningham. I'm the Sales Manager at Breathe Easy Insurance Solutions. So I just wanted to talk a little bit about the experience that the client has when they call us. Usually when a client is calling us, they're going through a DUI, which for a lot of people, it's probably the most serious thing that's happened to them. Really, what we're here to do is to help folks navigate through all the different requirements that you're going to need in order to reinstate your license. So we help out with SR-22 filings. We're directly connected to a company that helps out with interlock devices. So when folks are calling us, there's different things that they're going to need to complete in order to reinstate their license. And we just really try to simplify it as much as possible that way, they have an easy process when they go into the DMV.
Frequently Asked Questions
An SR-22 is a certificate that proves you have the minimum required auto insurance coverage mandated by your state. It's often required for drivers who have been convicted of serious driving offenses like DUIs or driving without insurance.
The cost of SR-22 insurance can vary widely based on factors like your driving history, location, and the insurance company you choose. On average, the SR-22 filing itself can range from $15 to $50 per month. However, the actual total cost increases significantly due to higher premium rates after a DUI or similar violation, as drivers required to file an SR-22 are classified as high-risk. This classification leads to much higher premiums compared to a standard insurance policy. Additionally, you may still face higher premiums even after the SR-22 requirement has been lifted.
Breathe Easy will help you get the necessary SR-22 documentation so you can get back on the road. We’ll help you understand what coverage you need, find you the best coverage at the best available price, and provide tips on how to keep your costs low. Once you’ve purchased an insurance policy, we file your SR-22 certificate with the DMV. Call Breathe Easy at 833-786-0237 to get a free, no-obligation quote.
If you were required to install an ignition interlock device and are caught driving without one, the penalties could be quite severe. You risk steep fines and a potential extension of your interlock term, if not more.
