returned.

A. The Department of Public Safety shall upon request consent

to the immediate cancellation of any certificate of insurance or the

Department shall direct and the State Treasurer shall return to the

person entitled thereto any money or securities deposited pursuant

to this article or Article II of this chapter as proof of financial

responsibility, or the Department shall waive the requirement of

filing proof of financial responsibility, in any of the following

events:

1. In the event of the death of the person on whose behalf the

proof of financial responsibility was filed or the permanent

incapacity of the person to operate a motor vehicle; or

2. In the event the person who has given proof of financial

responsibility surrenders his or her driver license to the

Department.

B. Provided, however, that the Department shall not consent to

the cancellation of any certificate of insurance and the Department

shall not consent to the return of any money or securities in the

event any action for damages upon a liability covered by such proof

of financial responsibility is then pending or any judgment upon any

such liability is then unsatisfied, or in the event the person who

has filed such bond or deposited such money or securities has within

one (1) year immediately preceding such request been involved as a

driver or owner in any accident resulting in injury or damage to the

person or property of others. An affidavit of the person as to the

nonexistence of such facts, or that the person has been released

from all liability, or has been finally adjudicated not to be

liable, for any injury or damage, shall be sufficient evidence

thereof in the absence of evidence to the contrary in the records of

the Department.
