Reader’s Question:

I just moved to Alabama. I was required to carry an sr22 in my former state. Do I continue this in Alabama?

Thank you for asking Leo.

Alabama can require a driver to carry a SR-22 for different reasons. If your previous state of mandated that you maintain and continue to carry a SR-22 for a certain amount of time and that time period is not up yet then you will need to continue your SR-22 coverage in Alabama when you change over your driver’s license to an Alabama license.

SR-22s are state specific so this means that what is required in one state may not apply in another state. When you move to Alabama, you will need to keep your former state mandated limits.

If you currently carry an SR-22 in one state but move to another state, you must fulfill the SR-22 filing period for your former state, even though you are no longer a resident there. In addition to that your insurance policy for your new state must have liability limits which meet the minimums required by law in your former (SR-22) state.

Goodluck!
