Hi David!

I hope you’re not the one who needs SR22 Alabama, because if you are then I guess you in some kind of trouble.

So as to your question, what SR22 insurance in Alabama is, it is high risk car insurance. The purpose of SR22 Alabama is to make sure that a specific individual is able to meet the mandatory auto insurance law in the state of Alabama. Maintaining SR22 insurance is usually for three years to five years. However, that still depends on how serious your violation is.

By now I’m sure you know that it is a law in Alabama that a driver cannot legally operate his or her car without car insurance. In Alabama, the one must purchase car insurance coverage for bodily injury liability coverage with the following limits:

  • $20,000 for each person for each accident
  • $40,000 for two or more people for each accident
  • $10,000 for damage incurred on property for each accident

If you caused an accident that resulted to damage on property or hurt other people, it is only expected that a law enforcement officer will ask for a proof of car insurance from you. And as a driver, you can show such proof by providing car insurance card given to you by your own car insurance company. If your car insurance coverage is no longer active, the Alabama Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) will suspend your driving privileges.

Additionally, you may be required to carry SR22 Alabama for any the following reasons: if you are driving along Alabama roads uninsured, that means no car insurance, if you are driving impaired like driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs (like driving under the influence or driving while intoxicated), and if you have accumulated numerous traffic violations on your driving records.
