In the United States, an SR-22 is a vehicle liability insurance document used by some state Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) offices. It provides proof that a driver has the minimum required liability insurance coverage for that particular state.
A DMV may require an SR-22 from a driver in order to reinstate his or her driving privileges following an uninsured car accident or conviction of another traffic-related offense, such as a DUI.[1][2] For drivers requiring SR22 documentation who do not own vehicles, the law demands that they obtain and prove a non-owner SR22 policy before they can be eligible for reinstated driving privileges. [3].
