New Hampshire HB1558 mandates proof of insurance or financial responsibility for vehicle registration.

New Hampshire HB1558 amends the state's motor vehicle laws to require proof of financial responsibility at the time of vehicle registration. This ensures that all motorists demonstrate they can cover damages caused by their operation of a motor vehicle. Acceptable forms of proof include a motor vehicle liability insurance policy or a certificate of deposit, surety bond, or other evidence of financial responsibility. Failure to provide such proof results in immediate suspension of driver’s license and registration privileges until proof is provided or claims are satisfied.
