Does Reading use the SR-22?
- PennDOT accepts a copy of your insurance ID card, declaration page, insurance binder or Assigned Risk Plan application. If no vehicle is registered in your name, a signed statement saying so takes its place
- Keep your coverage active. Insurers tell PennDOT when a policy is cancelled, and a lapse of 31 days or more suspends your registration for 3 months
- Need an SR-22 for another state? A licensed agent can still file it there and explain your options

Reading insurance questions
Do I need an SR-22 in Reading?
No. Pennsylvania doesn't use it, so there's no SR-22 to file with PennDOT. If PennDOT asks for proof of insurance to restore your license or registration, you send a copy of your insurance ID card or declaration page. If another state needs an SR-22 from you, a licensed agent can help.
Can I get car insurance in Reading if I don't own a car?
Often, yes. A non-owner policy covers you when you drive a car you don't own. PennDOT doesn't require one if no vehicle is registered in your name, but it helps if you drive borrowed cars or another state needs an SR-22. Not every company sells one, so a licensed agent can check for you.
