Celebrating 11 Years in Business!
At BadDrivingRecord.com, , we specialize in helping Florida drivers get back on the road after a license suspension or serious violation. Whether your license was suspended for uninsured driving, a major traffic offense, or a lapse in coverage, our team can help you file your SR22 certificate and find affordable insurance coverage that meets all state requirements.
We’re contracted with many insurance carriers in Florida that provide SR22 filings, allowing us to compare rates and find some of the most competitive options available. Even if your driving history isn’t perfect, we can help you secure SR22 insurance that satisfies the state’s reinstatement requirements.
SR22 insurance is simply an auto policy with the SR22 filing attached to it.
An SR22 certificate is a document your insurance company files with the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) to verify that you have active auto insurance meeting the state’s minimum liability limits.
This filing proves to the state that you’re financially responsible and properly insured after a suspension or serious violation.
When you purchase SR22 insurance through BadDrivingRecord.com, you’ll instantly receive proof of insurance and a copy of your SR22 certificate, so you can move forward with your driver’s license reinstatement right away.
Once your insurer files the SR22, the state monitors your policy for compliance. If the coverage is canceled or lapses during the filing period, your license will be automatically suspended again until coverage is reinstated. Additionally, if this occurs, you will also be required to pay the Florida DMV a reinstatement fee before your driving privileges can be restored.
/ A license suspension or revocation
/ Driving without insurance
/ An at-fault accident without coverage
/ Reckless or careless driving citations
/ Failure to maintain continuous insurance coverage
/ Too many points on your license
/ When your SR22 policy is issued, your insurer electronically submits the SR22 form to the state. This form verifies that your coverage meets or exceeds the required limits for liability insurance in Florida.
/ If your policy lapses or cancels before your SR22 obligation period ends, your insurance provider must report the lapse immediately to the FLHSMV, which will trigger a license suspension.
/ The SR22 filing must remain active for three consecutive years from the date of reinstatement. Maintaining consistent coverage during this time is crucial for keeping your license valid.
If you have a vehicle registered in your name, your SR22 policy must include the state-required minimum liability coverage to satisfy Florida’s financial responsibility laws. This includes:
/ $10,000 in property damage liability (PDL)
/ $10,000 in personal injury protection (PIP)
/ $10,000 per person / $20,000 per accident in bodily injury liability (BIL)
These limits ensure that any driver with a registered vehicle meets the state’s minimum standards when filing an SR22.
Most Florida drivers are required to keep SR22 coverage active for three years following license reinstatement. Canceling or allowing a lapse during that period will result in a new suspension.
No. The three-year SR22 requirement does not automatically restart, but your license will be suspended again until you pay a DMV reinstatement fee and reinstate coverage.
If you don’t own a car, you can still meet state requirements with a non-owner SR22 insurance policy. This type of policy provides liability coverage when you drive a vehicle that doesn’t belong to you and ensures your SR22 filing stays active with the state.
Yes, you can switch carriers at any time—but your new insurer must file a replacement SR22 form before your old policy is canceled. This prevents any lapse in coverage that could suspend your license again.
Not automatically. The SR22 filing only certifies that you meet the liability requirements for damages you cause to others. To protect your own car, you can add comprehensive and collision coverage to your policy.
The cost of SR22 insurance varies from person to person based on factors like age, driving record, location, and vehicle type. In general, drivers with fewer violations pay less, while those with serious offenses or suspensions may pay more. At BadDrivingRecord.com, we work with many carriers to help you find some of the most competitive rates available.
Yes. After you’ve maintained your SR22 for the required time—usually three years—you can ask your insurance company to remove the filing. This will typically lower your premium.
