A suspended license doesn't mean you're stuck. We get you insured, file your SR-22 with TxDPS the same day, and put you on the path to reinstatement.
Yes — you can get car insurance with a suspended license in Texas. It is legal for insurers to cover suspended-license drivers. If your suspension requires an SR-22 (common for DUI, uninsured accidents, or FR lapses), A-LA Auto Insurance files it electronically with TxDPS the same day you purchase your policy. You don't need a valid license to purchase insurance. Options include standard owner policies, non-owner SR-22 (if you don't own a car), comprehensive-only (parked car), or listing a licensed household member as primary driver. Texas requires SR-22 for 2 years. After filing, pay the reinstatement fee at txdps.texas.gov to get your license back. Call A-LA at (866) 252-6116 for a same-day quote from any of our 13 DFW locations — no credit check required.
Each suspension type has different reinstatement requirements. Our bilingual agents know exactly what you need — and we can get you covered the same day you call.
A DUI conviction in Texas triggers an automatic license suspension ranging from 90 days to 2 years (Tex. Transp. Code §521.341). You'll need an SR-22 filed with TxDPS before reinstatement. We file same-day.
Causing a wreck without insurance violates the Texas Financial Responsibility Act (§601.051). TxDPS suspends your license and requires proof of SR-22 coverage before reinstatement.
Texas tracks insurance coverage through TexasSure. If your policy lapses and isn't renewed within 10 days, TxDPS can suspend your registration and license. An SR-22 is required to clear the lapse.
Four or more moving violations within a 12-month period, or serious repeat offenses, can result in a suspension as a habitual traffic offender under Tex. Transp. Code §521.292.
Texas courts report unpaid fines to TxDPS. Once reported, your license is suspended until the debt is satisfied and a reinstatement fee is paid. We can issue coverage the same day you clear the hold.
Texas is one of few states where unpaid child support can trigger a license suspension under the Texas Family Code §232.003. SR-22 may or may not be required — call us and we'll advise.
Suspended license? You have more options than you think. A-LA agents find the right fit for your situation — same day, no credit check.
You own a vehicle and need to reinstate your license. We insure your car and file the SR-22 electronically with TxDPS the same day. Most common path to reinstatement.
You don't own a car but need an SR-22 to reinstate your license or maintain compliance. Non-owner SR-22 covers you when driving borrowed or rental vehicles. Cheapest option.
Your license is suspended and you're not driving, but you still need to protect your vehicle. Comprehensive-only coverage (fire, theft, vandalism) keeps your car insured while you reinstate.
Another licensed driver in your household (spouse, family member) can be listed as the primary driver. Your car is covered, and you can be an excluded driver while your license is reinstated.
A-LA handles Step 2 — the insurance and SR-22 filing — instantly. Here's the full roadmap.
Complete any court-ordered requirements, pay outstanding fines or surcharges, and fulfill the suspension period. Requirements vary by suspension type — call us and we'll explain what you need.
Purchase an auto insurance policy meeting Texas's 30/60/25 minimums. A-LA files your SR-22 electronically with TxDPS the same day — usually within hours. You'll receive your certificate immediately.
Texas charges a reinstatement fee ranging from $100 to $125 depending on suspension type. Pay online at txdps.texas.gov or at a DPS office. Your SR-22 must be active before TxDPS processes reinstatement.
Once reinstated, you must maintain continuous insurance with SR-22 for 2 years. If your policy lapses at any point, your insurer notifies TxDPS and your license is immediately re-suspended. Don't let it lapse.
