Frequently Asked Questions

What is a probationary license?

A probationary license is a restricted driving permit issued after DUI or serious moving violations in Indiana, Montana, and Wyoming. It allows driving for approved purposes like work, school, and medical appointments while you complete court-ordered requirements including SR-22 filing and ignition interlock installation.

Do I need SR-22 insurance for a probationary license?

Indiana, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, and Delaware require SR-22 filing during your probationary period, typically three years. New Jersey does not use SR-22 but requires payment of annual surcharges directly to the DMV instead.

How long does a probationary license last?

Most states require three years from conviction date. Colorado's Early Reinstatement Program may shorten this with ignition interlock compliance. New Jersey's Conditional License lasts three years with surcharge payments due annually.

What happens if I drive outside approved purposes?

Driving outside work, school, or medical purposes violates your probationary license terms and can result in immediate suspension, extended probationary periods, and potential criminal charges depending on your state. Your insurer will still cover liability claims but your license reinstatement timeline resets.

Do all carriers write probationary license insurance?

No. Standard carriers like State Farm and Allstate typically decline probationary license applicants. You need non-standard carriers experienced with SR-22 filing and high-risk drivers, such as The General, Bristol West, or regional state-specific providers.
