Understanding SR-22 Insurance in Kansas

An SR-22 isn't insurance but a certificate demonstrating that you carry the mandatory minimum liability coverage required by Kansas law:

  • $25,000 for bodily injury per person
  • $50,000 for total bodily injury per accident
  • $25,000 for property damage
  • $25,000 uninsured motorist protection, plus additional med pay and other coverages

This certificate is necessary if you've had certain driving offenses, such as DUIs, failed to provide proof of insurance during a traffic stop, or have not complied with court-ordered requirements.
