Auto Insurance
It is not uncommon for increased insurance premiums to be the most expensive cost of a DUI. Rate increases often remain in place for 3 to 7 years after DUI conviction.
Things that Matter:
- For a period of 3 to 5 years, most insurance companies will not cover a driver with a DUI conviction.
- Many states require an insurance rider, known as an SR-22, as proof of the minimum amount of liability insurance. Find insurance providers who specialize in DUI riders.
Helpful Hint:
Before you contact your existing insurance provider, get quotes from an insurance provider specializing in DUI. Shopping insurance and SR-22s with an agent experienced in DUIs may save you from being dropped and/or wasting thousands.
