Depending on the reason for suspension, you may need:
A new active auto insurance policy
An SR-22 filing
Continuous coverage for a required period
Confirmation submitted to the DMV

Got questions?

We have answers for you on all things insurance.
Can I get insurance if my license is suspended?
Insurance options may still be available depending on your driving history and eligibility. Completing a quote is the best way to see what options may be available to you.
Do I always need an SR-22 after a suspension?
Not every suspension requires an SR-22. Requirements depend on the reason for suspension and state guidelines.
How long does a suspension affect insurance rates?
Rates are influenced by factors such as violation history, location, vehicle, and coverage limits. Over time, driving history may have less impact.
Can I start insurance before my license is reinstated?
In many situations, drivers must secure active insurance before reinstatement can be completed.
What happens if I let coverage lapse again?
If your suspension involved insurance requirements, a lapse in coverage could delay reinstatement or extend required filing periods.
