Who needs an SR22?
An SR22 is required by law when a driver is unable to show financial responsibility. Meaning, at the time of a traffic conviction or accident, the driver was unable to show proof of insurance. They are then unable to pay for damages they caused (if in the case of an accident).

Can't I just get “regular” insurance like I had before?
Yes and No. Since your license was suspended, you need to provide the special documentation to the state in order to prove you have insurance. That's what the SR22 is. You are able to attach this document (filing) to a normal insurance liability, full coverage, or FR bond policy. Only certain insurance companies will issue you an SR-22. At A.A.
