If you are required by your state to obtain SR22 insurance following a driver license suspension, you will probably have other fees to pay, as well.
It Depends…
The specific fee(s) that will be charged will depend upon the state in which you live and drive.
For instance, in California, you may be required to take a driver safety course before being considered for reinstatement of your driving privileges. The cost of the driver safety course will be in addition to your auto insurance, the SR22 insurance policy and the state’s reinstatement fee(s).
In Texas, a driver must secure an SR22 insurance policy and pay penalty fees to the state to retain their driving privileges. After the suspension period has lapsed, a reinstatement fee must be paid to the state to reinstate the driver’s license.
If you are required to purchase SR22 insurance, it is recommended that you consult with an attorney to obtain a complete list of the fees you might expect during (and after) your suspension period.
