Washington SR-22 Auto Insurance Rates
Reader’s Question:
I was required to carry an sr-22 but wasn’t been able to make a payment for it so it was canceled. My question is this, do I need to start the three years again or should I start from the day that I canceled it? Thank you.

Good question Eric.
It depends upon the laws of the state if you will need to start all over again from the time period that you were required to carry the sr-22 or if you can start from the time where you left off before canceling the future proof of financial responsibility.
In most states you are going to have to restart after reinstating the policy with an sr-22.
In Washington State if an individual whose proof of financial responsibility has been terminated applies for a drivers license within a period of three years from the date sr22 was originally required, that application will be refused unless the motorist applying shall re-establish a proof for the remaining three-year period.
I would really suggest that you check with your WA Department of Motor Vehicles to verify what is required of you regarding the time period in which you must maintain the proof of financial responsibility or SR-22.
Goodluck!
