Miller, city corporation counsel. Every driver who wants to stay out of trouble will protect himself against the strict penalties imposed under the new Financial Responsibility Law effective July 1, 1943.

It specifies after July 1, 1943 every uninsured motorist involved in an accident in which death, personal injury of any kind or one wherein property damage of more than $25.00 is involved may be required to deposit up to $11,000.00 in cash or security, or lose his right to operate an automobile. These penalties may be imposed whether fault in the accident has been determined or not.
