Will Metromile file my SR-22?

Money has been a little tight lately, and I let my car insurance policy lapse since I don’t drive a lot. Unfortunately, I got caught driving uninsured—and now I need to get insurance and an SR-22. I think Metromile might be a good choice, but will they file an SR-22?

Oh no! We’re sorry to hear about that, but we’re sure you’ll be back on track in no time. However,
Metromile
does not offer much assistance with
SR-22
filings. Their website states that if you live in
California
or are an existing
Virginia
customer, they might be able to help you and to contact them for more information.
But don’t give up hope—there are many
car insurance
providers who file SR-22s. Major providers like
GEICO
,
Progressive
, and
AAA
have some of the lowest prices for SR-22s, and many smaller and local providers offer them as well.
Shopping around, comparing rates, and seeing what provider offers the most
discounts
will be key to saving as much money as you can. The cost to file an SR-22 is between $15 and $50, but having an SR-22 makes your policy more expensive by about 18% to 20%.
When you’ve completed your required time with an SR-22, make sure you double-check with the DMV before you discontinue it. Dropping your SR-22 too early will make the whole cycle start again—and last even longer. Good luck!
