Sorry to hear that. I'll be happy to help you with this. Your Suspension Order that you received from the DMV will show you how much you will need to pay. The amount owed will depend on how long your insurance was lapsed.
Has your insurance lapsed for more than 25 days?
Yes, it's been longer than that.
Okay. For future reference, an insurance lapse of less than 25 days will require you to pay a civil penalty of $200. In this case, you would get to keep your plates. If you choose to surrender your plates, the penalty would be a 25 day suspension of your registration.
