Motor vehicle insurance; proof of insurance. Requires insurance companies issuing liability policies to provide insureds with proof of liability insurance and requires operators of vehicles registered as insured vehicles to carry proof of insurance when driving on the public highways. Failure, refusal, or inability to produce such proof of insurance when requested by a law-enforcement officer constitutes a traffic infraction (fine up to $200). The bill also makes it a class 6 felony to alter or falsify such proof of insurance, or to carry such proof knowing the applicable insurance policy to be expired or cancelled.
