What is Arizona SR22 Insurance?

Arizona SR22 Insurance is a form filing sent to the Motor Vehicles Division certifying that you have future proof of financial responsibility. If you have let your insurance lapse or have had your license suspended or revoked, you will be required to obtain Arizona SR22 Insurance. Your license may be suspended or revoked due to the following:

• Refusal to submit to a field sobriety test or other test to detect if a person is operating under the influence of alcohol or drugs,



• Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs,



• Failure to pay penalties for outstanding traffic, moving or speeding violations,



• Reckless Driving,



• Being at fault of an accident that causes serious injury or death to another person,



• Violating traffic laws so often that the state has deemed you to have disrespect for traffic laws and a disregard for the safety of others, or



• Using a driver’s license illegally.

Do I need Arizona SR22 Insurance if I do not own a car?

Yes. Even if you do not own a car, but have the need for a driver's license you will need to file an SR22 with the MVD in order to get your license reinstated. This type of SR22 filing is referred to as a non-owners SR22 insurance filing. A non-owners SR22 policy is a liability only policy.

Your SR22 insurance provider will send the Arizona DOT a certificate indicating that you have obtained the necessary insurance in order to reinstate your driving privileges. Please understand that if the court has mandated the installation of an ignition interlock device on any vehicle you drive, you will not be able to obtain a non-owners insurance policy.

How long am I required to carry Arizona SR22 Insurance?

For most offenses, the State of Arizona will require you to carry SR22 Insurance for a period of 3 years unless it is a judgment suspension. Because the requirement for a judgment suspension vary from case to case, you should contact the Arizona Department of Transportation Motor Vehicle Division and they will review your case and determine the length of time you need to maintain SR22 Insurance.

What is the process to reinstate my Arizona Driver License?

Once your suspension has ended, you can apply to have your driving privileges reinstated. If you are paying your reinstatement fee with a credit card, you can reinstate your license online. You can also pay your reinstatement fee in person at any MVD office. In some cases, your insurance company will need to submit an Arizona SR22 Insurance form before you can reinstate your license.

Reinstating a revocation is more difficult. Your driving record will need to be investigated before the Motor Vehicle Department will allow you to apply for a new license. Be aware that the investigation can take up to 30 days. A telephone call to the MVD will initiate the investigations and you will also need to order the Revocation Investigation Packet. You will receive notification of the investigation in writing 7 – 10 days after the packet is mailed. You will also need to pay all reinstatement and reapplication fees.

What is an Arizona Administrative hearing?

An Arizona Administrative Hearing is less formal than a criminal court trial. The administrative hearing provides an opportunity for you to appeal an Order or Decision of the Department of Motor Vehicles that adversely affects your driving privileges.

Your Notice or Order will indicate whether your circumstances allow you to file for an administrative hearing. If you are entitled to file for an Administrative Hearing, you must do so in writing and it must be received in the Executive Hearing Office no later than 15 days after the date of the Notice, if you wish to appeal your license suspension.

Hearing requests can be made in one of the following four ways:

1. Mailed or personally delivered to the main office of the Executive Hearing Office at: Executive Hearing Office 3737 North Seventh Street, Phoenix, AZ 85014,



2. Or you can personally deliver the request to any Motor Vehicle Division Office, statewide,



3. Or you can fax the request to the Executive Hearing Office at 602-241-1624,



4. Or you can e-mail your request to hearingoffice@azdot.gov.

Arizona Administrative Hearings for DUI cases will usually be held in the county where the DUI arrest occurred. You have the right to represent yourself or be represented by an attorney. We recommend an attorney that specializes in DUI cases. As the Arizona Administrative Hearing is a civil proceeding you will not be appointed a state attorney. The attorney choice and cost is entirely yours.
