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.
