Yes and no.
There is actually no such thing as sr22 insurance. There is a sr22, which is issued to drivers whose privileges have been suspended by the state Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). However, this is not an insurance policy. Rather, it is a document filed by an insurance company in behalf of an errant driver who wishes to reinstate his privileges. The sr22 ascertains that the driver has minimum liability coverage for the vehicle that he is using, which can be either owned or leased.
But because it is a certificate that is usually filed to obtain insurance, most people already refer to it as sr22 insurance. So when people inquire if there are companies that offer sr22 insurance, it can be quite confusing.
Yes, there are companies that offer sr22 insurance. In fact, there are a lot of them in the market. So much so that the question now is, how do you choose the best provider?
You have two options. First, you can check the website of the state DMV to see which insurance firms offer sr22 insurance. There you can see which providers have the highest satisfaction ratings, as well as the most affordable rates.
Next, you can check out your state’s yellow pages for listings of insurance companies. Call as many as you can and book an appointment with their agent to discuss your requirements.
