Why SR-22 drivers pay more
SR-22 is a financial-responsibility certificate the carrier files with your state DMV — typically required after a DUI, license suspension, at-fault uninsured accident, or accumulated points. The filing itself costs $15-25, but the underlying high-risk classification adds a 30-50% surcharge that persists for 3-5 years (state-dependent).

SR-22 High-Risk-specific coverage notes
The SR-22 must be maintained continuously — even a 1-day lapse triggers carrier notification to the DMV, which can re-suspend your license. If you cancel and re-shop carriers, request the new policy be active BEFORE you cancel the old one. The filing transfers with you only if you stay with the same carrier or arrange concurrent filings.
Discount stack: High-risk discount stacks are thin: defensive-driving course (5-10% in most states), telematics (10-20% if you can demonstrate clean driving on the new policy), pay-in-full (5-7%). The biggest savings come from comparison shopping — SR-22 rates between eligible carriers can vary 60-80% for the same risk profile.
