Financial responsibility proof SR22

Q: What will happen to me if I am pulled over by a police officer and I don’t have any SR22 financial responsibility proof?

A: My answer would vary depending on what you mean by not having any SR22 financial responsibility proof, since this could mean different things. If by not having proof you mean that you didn’t have your insurance card with you, then you might get in some temporary but solvable trouble. You’ll be issued a ticket, and your license may be suspended, but you can bring your insurance card to court and prove that you were insured to get rid of the ticket and do the same at the DPS to get your license restored without fees. It’s a hassle, but you should always bring your insurance card with you to avoid these things.

Now, if you mean that you don’t have any SR22 financial responsibility proof as in you don’t have an SR22 at all, then you’re in big trouble. You’ll have your license suspended for a certain period again, and you’ll have to pay your ticket, fees and fines to reinstate your license, and probably a certain amount to the DPS each year to keep it.
