§ 42-7-410 — Certificate for insurance policy

(1) Proof of financial
responsibility may be made by filing with the director the written certificate of any
insurance carrier duly authorized to do business in this state, certifying that it has
issued to or for the benefit of the person furnishing such proof and named as the
insured a motor vehicle liability policy or in certain events an operator's policy,
meeting the requirements of this article, and that said policy is then in full force and
effect. Such certificate shall give the dates of issuance and expiration of such
policy and shall explicitly describe all motor vehicles covered thereby, unless the
policy is issued to a person who is not the owner of a motor vehicle.

(2) The director shall not accept any certificate unless the same covers all
motor vehicles registered in the name of the person furnishing such proof as owner
and an additional certificate shall be required as a condition precedent to the
subsequent registration of any motor vehicle or motor vehicles in the name of the
person giving such proof as owner.
