An SR22 is actually a form that serves like a tracker of the high-risk classified. This shows proof of insurance to the DMV. Unfortunately, it is inevitable that DUI’s and DWI’s will likely raise your car insurance premiums.
There are some cases when the rates go so high that the insured is unable to cover the costs. It will be the burden of the insurance company to inform the DVM that the high-risk driver or SR-22 carrier no longer holds auto insurance. You may verify from Kentucky DVM, but normally, SR-22 will last for 3-5 years. After this period, you will be able to experienced reduced car insurance premium may go down depending on how well your driving history has been.
