Yes, your car insurance rate will typically go up if you have been convicted of DUI on your driving record. You will now be placed on the category of high risk drivers if you drive while under the influence of alcohol or drugs and got involved in an accident.

The amount of increase in your car insurance rate after DUI conviction and being a high risk driver will depend upon the insurance provider that you currently have insurance with and their rating system of that insurance provider. You also may lose some car insurance discounts that you also previously had on the car insurance policy which made your auto insurance rates lower such as a safe driver discount and good student discount.

Some department of motor vehicles or insurance regulators provide information on the average car insurance rate increase after DUI conviction. You may call them to get more information on how much your car insurance rate will increase after DUI conviction.
