So, Oregon?
Oregon's New Financial Responsibility Act becomes effective after June 8th." In a nutshell here is the new law and how
it will affect you if you own or drive a car in the State of Oregon.
After June 8th, the driver of any automobile involved in an accident must, within ten days from date of such accident,'
file a full report of same with the Secretary of State's office, and in addition, also within a ten-day period, must file with
the Secretary of State, evidence of financial responsibility in the amount of $5,000 for the injury or death of one person,
$10,000 for more than one person in any one accident, and $1,000 property damage.- The question of who is or who is
not to blame for such an accident does not enter into the provision, as operators of all cars involved must comply with
the above. Penalty for failure to report such an accident provides for the suspension of the driver's license. The evidence
of financial responsibility may be cash, a surety bond or a standard insurance policy. The foregoing does not apply to
the owner of a legally parked car.
The surest way of avoiding a license suspension after an accident
is to obtain a standard insurance policy now, before an accident.
Be ready for the law before it goes into effect and insure your
car before an accident, as afterwards it may be more difficult
to obtain and the cost may be higher.
REMEMBER THAT AFTER JUNE STH YOU CANNOT
OWN OR DRIVE A CAR IN THE STATE OF OREGON. FOL
LOWING AN AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT, UNTIL YOU FILE
WITH THE SECRETARY OF STATE, $11,000 CASH, OR
SURETY BOND. OR A STANDARD AUTO LIABILITY AND
PROPERTY DAMAGE POLICY.

(1) To reduce automobile accidents in Oregon.
(2) Compel automobile owners and drivers to be finan
cially responsible for injuries sustained and property
damaged as a result of automobile accidents.
