A bill which will require Mississippi motorists to show proof of insurance when they have a vehicle inspected, are stopped at a roadblock or buy a new automobile license plate, has passed the Senate.
The House version of the bill requires the Department of Public Safety to maintain a database of insured motorists, but the Senate removed that requirement from its version of the bill.
Passage of this requirement leaves Tennessee as the only southern states without a law that requires proof of insurance according to Dean Kirby, R-Pearl, Tennessee Insurance Committee chairman.
