What would happen if I decide not to get an SR-22 endorsement for my auto insurance?

What are the consequences if I don't get an SR-22? I want to insure my car, but I need an SR-22 as required by law. I'm worried that an SR-22 will raise my rates exponentially.

“If your state requires an
SR-22
but you don’t file for one, you’re asking for trouble.
In most cases, your license and registration will be suspended until you get the required
car insurance
. This may come with additional fees.
SR-22s are only about $25, so there’s no reason not to get one. If you can’t afford it, you probably can’t afford to drive a car at this present moment.”
