Does obtaining an SR-22 lead to more expensive insurance rates?
Surprisingly, not always like you might think. We refer clients (with NO kickbacks) to an insurance agent who has done research to prove to the insurance underwriters that those arrested and/or convicted of DUI actually drive safer than those without such a mark on their record, likely because they are scared to death about another police encounter. In light of his research, this insurance agent is consistently able to obtain low SR-22 rates for many of my clients, sometimes even lower than their pre-DUI rate.
