KSA 40-3118 is the statute that requires the filing of a “SR-22," which is essentially a "proof of insurance" form.  Whenever the Kansas Department of Revenue's division of motor vehicles receives notice of non-compliance with the State’s requirement to maintain financial security on a motor vehicle as directed in KSA 40-3118 (a), the division will require the filing of an SR-22 pursuant to KSA 40-3118.

The requirement of an SR-22 filing can be triggered by various Johnson County, KS traffic citations/tickets, including the following: 

1. A Johnson County Sheriff's, Kansas Highway Patrol trooper's, or Johnson County police officer's filing of a "DC-66."  This is a form sent in to the Kansas Department of Revenue due to the failure of a motorist to provide proof of insurance during a traffic stop.  If the driver does not provide proof of insurance to the department within the time prescribed by KSA 40-3118(e), then an SR-22 requirement will be enforced.  See KSA 40-3104(d), KSA 40-3118 (e)(d).
2. A Conviction in Johnson County District Court or any of the municipal courts of Johnson County, of any violation listed under the Habitual Violator Statute (KSA 8-285) (KSA 40-3118(d).
3. A driver's license suspension, resulting from failure to comply with this statute's requirements to maintain evidence of insurance (KSA 40-3118(d).
4. Failure to provide evidence of financial security (automobile insurance) as a result of an automobile accident in Johnson County or elsewhere in Kansas, as required by KSA 40-3104, and KSA-40-3118(e)(d).
