A common misconception is that “SR22 insurance” is a specific type of car insurance policy. In reality, an SR22 is a filing (Certificate of Financial Responsibility) that is attached to your personal auto policy.

This certificate is a guarantee from your insurance company to the State of Florida verifying that you are carrying the specific liability coverages required by law. If your policy cancels, lapses, or expires for any reason, the insurance company is legally obligated to notify the state immediately, which usually results in the re-suspension of your license.

Florida is unique compared to other states because it actually requires two different types of filings. Filing the wrong one can result in your license being suspended again, costing you time and money. Because the SR22S is unique to Florida, many out-of-state call centers do not know the difference and often issue the wrong certificate.

At Colucci Insurance, we ensure it’s done right the first time. Here is how to know which one you need:

• Who Needs It: Drivers sanctioned for driving without insurance.

• How to Identify: Look at the case or sanction number on the letter sent to you by the FLHSMV. If it starts with a “2”, you need an SR22S.

• Filing Period: Must be maintained continuously for two years from your reinstatement date.

• Coverage Requirements:

   

  • $10,000 Property Damage Liability

  • $10,000 PIP (Personal Injury Protection)

• Who Needs It: Drivers involved in at-fault accidents without insurance or for other major offenses.

• Filing Period: Must be maintained continuously for three years from your reinstatement date.

• Coverage Requirements:

  • $10,000 Bodily Injury Liability (per person)

  • $20,000 Bodily Injury Liability (per accident)

  • $10,000 Property Damage Liability

Important Warning: Any lapse or interruption in your coverage may result in the “clock” being reset, meaning you have to start your 2 or 3-year filing period all over again, along with paying new suspension fees. All SR22 filings in Florida must be filed electronically, which we handle for you immediately upon purchase.

Finding cheap SR22 insurance in Florida is possible if you know where to look. Beyond shopping your rate, you can proactively improve your standing with the state.

If you have accumulated too many points on your driver’s license, you may be eligible to take safety classes to reduce those points. We recommend contacting the Florida Safety Council to see if a driver improvement course can help lower your insurance costs and clean up your record.

Safety is critical. In 2024 alone, the Federal Highway Adminstration reported that Florida had over 381,000 car crashes. Speeding is a major factor in car crashes. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reported in 2023 that 11,775 lives were lost nationally because of speeding. Carrying proper coverage isn’t just a legal requirement, it’s financial protection for you and your family on busy roads.

Reinstatement often involves more than just buying insurance. If a judgment was placed against you, you may need to satisfy court requirements before the state will clear you.

Clear Judgments: You may have to pay court costs and restitution. You can check the status of your case via the Florida Court System.

Pay Fees: License reinstatement fees must be paid directly to the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV).

File Proof: Have Colucci Insurance file your SR22 or SR22S electronically.
