Coverage Options
Understanding your coverage options helps you build a policy that protects what matters — without paying for what you don't need.
SR-22 InsuranceAn SR-22 is a state-mandated filing proving you carry minimum liability coverage, typically required for 3 years after DUI, excessive points, or driving uninsured. Not all carriers offer SR-22 filing, and premiums average $65–$95/month higher than standard policies.
Non-Owner SR-22Non-owner policies satisfy SR-22 requirements without owning a vehicle, essential for license reinstatement when you don't have a car. Monthly premiums typically range $25–$50, far lower than standard owner policies.
Liability InsuranceLiability coverage pays for damage you cause to others and is the minimum legal requirement in 49 states. State minimums range from $10,000 to $50,000 per person for bodily injury.
Uninsured Motorist CoverageUninsured motorist coverage protects you when hit by a driver with no insurance, required in 20 states and recommended in all. Roughly 13% of U.S. drivers carry no insurance despite legal requirements.
Non-Standard Auto InsuranceNon-standard carriers specialize in high-risk drivers, including those with suspensions, DUIs, or lapses. Premiums run 40–80% higher than standard market rates but offer coverage when major carriers decline.Recent Articles

What is an SR-22 and when is it required?
An SR-22 is a certificate your insurer files with the state proving you carry minimum liability coverage. It's typically required after DUI, reckless driving, driving uninsured, excessive points, or at-fault accidents without insurance. The filing period usually lasts 3 years from the violation date.
Can I get insurance with a suspended license?
Yes, most carriers will sell you a policy while your license is suspended, especially if you need SR-22 filing for reinstatement. Non-owner policies are designed specifically for drivers without a vehicle who need to maintain coverage during suspension. Premiums are higher due to suspension history but coverage is available.
How long does SR-22 filing last?
SR-22 filing periods typically last 3 years from the conviction or violation date, though some states require 5 years for serious offenses like DUI. The period does not start when you file — it starts from the violation date. Your insurer must maintain the filing continuously or notify the state of cancellation.
Can I get a hardship license while suspended?
34 states offer hardship, restricted, or occupational licenses allowing limited driving during suspension for work, school, or medical needs. You must prove financial hardship, install an ignition interlock device in some states, and carry SR-22 insurance. Eligibility depends on violation type and suspension length.
