What level of liability limits should I carry in Missouri?
Many people in Missouri drive vehicles that cost over $20,000 but if you only have $10,000 in property damage coverage you will owe the difference. Also the cost of medical treatment and other expenses related to an accident can reach $100,000 or more without a law suit.

Missouri SR-22 Auto Insurance
Missouri requires drivers with suspended licenses to maintain a financial responsibility filing called SR-22. For most drivers whose license has been suspended you must file this form. In most cases involving driving under the influence of alcohol you will be required to file an SR-22 with the Missouri Department of Motor Vehicle. This filing is normally required for a period of 3 years but may be longer depending on your court order. Reference our SR22 insurance page for more details about SR-22 forms.
