Following a DUI license suspension or revocation in Washington State, DUI offenders are required to obtain SR-22 high risk insurance for at least 3 years following reinstatement of your drivers license.

Even if your attorney is able to negotiate your DUI charge down to a Reckless Driving, you will still be required to carry SR-22 high risk insurance for 3 years following your license reinstatement. The only way to become exempt from getting SR-22 insurance is if your case is completely dismissed, negotiated down to a lesser charge of negligent driving in the first degree or a lower comparable offense. Additionally, if you gave a valid breath sample (no refusal) and entered into a deferred prosecution program, you will not be required to carry SR-22 insurance.

If you wish to apply for an occupational "work" permit (ORL), you will also be required to obtain SR-22 insurance.

High risk insurance is costly. Be sure to consult with several carriers to shop around for the best price.
