Rather, it’s a certificate that you file with the state of California to demonstrate that you meet the minimum auto insurance coverage. This is sometimes also known as a “certificate of financial responsibility” or “SR-22 bond.” This form is typically ordered by the state via the Department of Motor Vehicles or by a court of law. There are numerous reasons you might be required to file an SR-22: - Caught driving without a valid license or insurance - DWI or DUI conviction - Repeat moving violations in a short period of time - Multiple at-fault accidents - Non-payment of child support - Possession of hardship license that only permits limited driving Have you been required to file an SR-22 form?
