Insurance After a DUI Arrest or Conviction

Posted on by Accel Admin

If your insurance company is notified of a DUI related civil suspension of your driving privileges or a DUI conviction they may choose to:

  • Cancel your Policy
  • Assign the Policy to a High Risk Carrier
  • Increase the Policy Rates

Every insurance company has different procedures regarding DUI related suspensions and convictions.

It is possible your insurance company does not find out about a DUI suspension or conviction. The insurance company may fail to check your motor vehicle record or there could be a lack of shared information between the Courts and motor vehicle division.
