Fort Lauderdale SR22 & FR44 Requirements

Florida Uses Both
SR22 and FR44

Fort Lauderdale is the seat of Broward County and one of South Florida's most active DUI enforcement zones. A Florida DUI conviction triggers FR44 filing with the FLHSMV rather than the standard SR22, with significantly higher liability minimums. I-95, US-1, and the A1A beachfront corridor see heavy DUI enforcement year-round and during Spring Break.

SR22 triggers in Fort Lauderdale: Driving without insurance, excessive points, a non-DUI license suspension, at-fault accidents.

FR44 triggers in Fort Lauderdale: DUI conviction, driving under the influence of drugs, alcohol-related violations.

Florida FR44 minimums: $100,000 per person / $300,000 per accident / $50,000 property damage (100/300/50), double the standard SR22 minimum of 25/50/20. See full SR22 vs FR44 comparison →

Broward County Transit and Sun Trolley provide limited local service, but personal vehicles are the primary transportation mode for most Fort Lauderdale residents. The elevated FR44 coverage requirements mean DUI convictions in Broward County typically result in substantially higher insurance premiums.
