Reader’s Question:
I am wondering if carrying an SR22 Insurance prevent someone from getting a CDL License?
Martha

It will likely depend upon the reason that you must carry the SR-22 insurance if you will be able to get a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL). If you are required to carry an SR-22 because of driving under the influence conviction, you may be disqualified from obtaining a CDL for a certain length of time. If you have to carry the SR22 due to something less serious then you may be able to apply for a commercial driver’s license.
You should verify with the Department of Motor Vehicles of the state in which you want to get the CDL to check if you can apply for this type of license at this time with your SR-22 insurance and by telling them of the reason you carry the SR-22. State’s DMVs issue the CDL and have their own guidelines and rules but also must following the federally set guidelines.

Reader’s Question:
I would like to know if auto insurance is more or less for a new vehicle as opposed to an older car?
Kenny

Generally, an old used car will cost less to insure because normally it is worth less than a brand new vehicle. In addition, parts and repair costs tend to be lower for a used vehicle compared to a new car and therefore if the car must be repaired after an accident the expense should be less for the insurance company to fix the used car.
If the new vehicle though is a mid-size family sedan it may cost less than a used Jaguar to insure. So it will depend on the type of the car also as the age of it. Collision-damage costs are also one of the determining factors in differentiating the cost of insuring one type of vehicle over another. If a vehicle is popular to thieves and usually stolen it may be higher to insure, whether it is used or new.
If you are looking for a car to purchase and are trying to decide between a older or new car, you can get an car insurance quote on each car to see what the price difference would be for each to be insured.

Reader’s Question:
Is it better to obtain the SR22 car insurance from a different insurer or from the same insurance carrier we currently have? I live in Phoenix, Arizona.
Brad
Phoenix, AZ
If your current insurance carrier in Arizona will file the SR-22 financial responsibility certificate for you, after making sure you have at least the types of insurance and limits that your state is requiring of you, then normally it would not be hard for you to keep the same insurance carrier as you currently have.
If instead your current Arizona insurance carrier is not able to file the SR-22 financial responsibility certificate for you then you will have to find a different car insurance carrier that does deal with high risk motorists and will submit in the SR22 certificate to the proper state agency on your behalf.
Your current Arizona insurance policy will not be able to be kept if your present insurance provider does not file SR-22 forms for policy holders. If they do not deal with SR22s then you will need to acquire auto insurance with an insurer that does SR22 filing and then cancel your present insurance once your new car insurance has been set up.

Reader’s Question:
My sister has an SR-22 in the state of Texas and I would like to know what she needs to do to remove it.
Rachel
El Paso, TX
An SR-22 auto insurance policy is a certificate of insurance that shows proof of insurance for the future in the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) , as required by law. It is a an auto liability insurance which requires the insurance carriers to certify coverage to Department of Public Safety, and the insurance carrier must notify DPS anytime the policy is lapses, cancelled or terminated.
The SR-26 (cancellation of SR-22 insurance certificate) is a form submitted by an insurance provider to inform the department that the SR-22 insurance certificate issued by that insurer has been canceled. The filing of form SR26 may initiate suspension action by the department if the person’s driver record shows that the SR22 financial responsibility certificate is still required at the time the SR26 is received. That is the reason why your sister will want to make sure the SR22 is no longer required by the state of Texas. The DPS and his insurance broker should be able to give her with more information on how remove the SR22.
