Minimum Coverage Requirements in Utah

Drivers with DUIs, at-fault accidents while uninsured, license suspensions for points, or repeat violations typically must file SR-22 proof of financial responsibility with the Utah Driver License Division for 3 years. Failing to maintain continuous coverage during the SR-22 period triggers immediate license suspension and restarts the filing clock. As you complete your requirement, understand that the SR-22 itself stays on your driving record for the full 3 years even after the filing ends, but violations that triggered it may remain visible for up to 10 years.

Bodily Injury Liability

Property Damage Liability

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage

Post-SR22 drivers rebuilding financial stability should accept UM/UIM at 100/300 limits—it protects the recovery progress you've made over the past 3 years without adding significant premium.

Personal Injury Protection (PIP)

You can reject PIP in writing, but doing so means relying entirely on health insurance for accident-related injuries.

Comprehensive and Collision Coverage

Comprehensive covers non-collision damage (theft, weather, vandalism) while collision covers crash damage to your vehicle. Neither is state-required, but lienholders mandate both until your loan is paid.

Coverage Types

Liability Insurance

Covers bodily injury and property damage you cause to others. Utah's 25/65/15 minimums are among the lowest in the West and insufficient for most multi-vehicle accidents. Post-SR22 drivers should raise to 100/300/50 to protect assets and demonstrate responsibility.

Uninsured Motorist Coverage

Pays your medical bills and vehicle damage when an uninsured or underinsured driver causes your accident. Utah requires insurers to offer UM/UIM but allows you to reject it in writing. Approximately 11% of Utah drivers have no insurance.

Full Coverage Insurance

Bundles liability, collision, comprehensive, and often UM/UIM into one policy. Required by lenders but optional once your vehicle is paid off. Covers both your liability to others and physical damage to your own vehicle from accidents, theft, weather, and vandalism.

SR-22 Insurance

SR-22 is a certificate, not a policy type. Your insurer files it electronically with the Utah Driver License Division to prove you carry minimum coverage. It costs $15–$35 to file and requires continuous coverage for typically 3 years—any lapse restarts the clock and suspends your license immediately.

Comprehensive Coverage

Covers non-collision damage to your vehicle: theft, vandalism, hail, flood, fire, and animal strikes. Optional unless financing, and many post-SR22 drivers with older vehicles drop it to save $30–$60/mo once loan requirements end.

Non-Standard Auto Insurance

Specialty coverage for drivers with violations, suspensions, or lapses who don't qualify for standard insurance. Non-standard carriers specialize in SR-22 filings and high-risk profiles but rarely lower rates automatically once your filing ends—you must shop out to see savings.
