Do I Have To Get SR22 Auto Insurance For Lapsed Policy?
Reader’s Question:
I was required to have an sr22 because they said there is a lapse on my car insurance. I thought sr22 are for DUIs? I live in AZ.

Thank you for asking Kelly.
It is possible to need a sr22 for insurance lapse in the state of Arizona. Usually, the sr22 is required as a by-product of a DUI or multiple moving violations. But, in Arizona, the state is notified by your old insurance provider if your insurance policy is no longer active. At that point, the state will send you a notification for you to give them proof of your car insurance. Failure to provide this proof Arizona will suspend your driver’s license and/or your plate registration. To reinstate these items, Arizona will require you to maintain an sr22 form for a period of three years from your suspension date. To get more information regarding this, you may contact the Arizona Department of Insurance.
Goodluck!
