Requires the bureau of motor vehicles (bureau) to request evidence of financial responsibility from the insurance company of each person identified in an accident report (report) as an operator of a motor vehicle (operator) following an accident. Allows each person identified in a report as an operator to voluntarily provide evidence of financial responsibility to the bureau.

Requires any bureau issued notice to an operator concerning: (1) a request for evidence of financial responsibility; or (2) notice of a possible license suspension; following a motor vehicle accident to be sent via certified mail.

Makes conforming amendments.
