SR-22 Insurance
Certificate of financial responsibility required after conviction.
Understanding SR-22 Insurance
An SR-22 is not actually an insurance policy, but rather a Certificate of Financial Responsibility that your auto insurance company files with the California DMV. It serves as proof that you carry the state's minimum required liability insurance. You are required to maintain an SR-22 on file with the DMV for three years following a DUI conviction or license suspension in order to reinstate your driving privileges or obtain a restricted license.
