5 /5 Alex Perry: Pulled over near the light on East Santa Clara and 5th, just blocks from San Jose State ā I thought it was just expired tags. Turns out I didnāt have valid insurance and I didnāt even realize that could trigger a whole SR22 situation. First car, first time being this deep into adult stuff, and I was shook.
I walked into SLPE two days later still a little embarrassed, but the lady up front literally said, āBreathe. Weāll get you fixed up.ā She helped me get same-day SR22 insurance and filed everything with the DMV while I was still sitting there. The monthly SR22 premium wasnāt nearly as bad as I feared ā actually fit my budget. I walked out feeling protected, not punished. Saved their number in case any of my friends mess up like I did.
