Why do I need SR-22 insurance to file for an occupational driver license?

This is a requirement established by the Texas legislature. The basic premise is to make sure that others on the roadway are protected if you should be involved in a wreck and that wreck is deemed to be your fault. Remember, that the mere fact that your license is suspended has shown that you are a higher risk driver than others. This risk must be balanced between the safety of others on the roadway with your necessity to continue to support yourself and your family.
