Fred,
The impact of filing an SR-22 is that it alerts car insurance companies of a driver’s DUI conviction. As a result, the driver is red-flagged. Some carriers do not offer policies for those who have filed an SR-22. So, The effects of a DUI on your insurance can be hard to manage. At the very least, you will almost certainly have to pay much higher premiums on your existing car insurance policy. However, if your insurance carrier cancels or refuses to renew your policy, you will be forced to find another carrier who is willing to underwrite a policy given your red flag status. The key is to plan ahead once you have been arrested for a DUI. Then, consult an expert regarding how best to approach your car insurance problems before a DUI conviction follows.
Excellent Question.
