Getting a DUI in San Jose can definitely cause some problems in your life. If you have been convicted of a DUI, have too many points on your record or have another serious moving violation, and your driver's license is suspended or revoked, you will probably need an SR22 compliant insurance policy before you can drive again.

If you need to obtain a compliant policy, you probably have several questions about what that means, how to file and where to find an insurance company that carries this type of coverage. First, let’s clarify exactly what an SR22 is and how you get one.

An SR22 Certificate For Residents of San Jose

If you have been convicted of a DUI or another serious driving offense, or if you have accumulated too many points against your license, the State of California will require that you file an SR22 certificate with the California Department of Motor Vehicles. The SR22 is not an insurance policy. It is a certificate that verifies that you maintain the coverage required by the state. This certificate is filed by your insurance company on your behalf. You must keep your insurance paid and up to date. Otherwise, your insurance company must notify the DMV that your coverage has lapsed. If your coverage lapses, your drivers license is immediately and automatically suspended.

The State of California mandates that the SR22 certificate remain on file for at least three years. Sometimes, the court will require that the certificate remain on file for a longer period of time.
