(1) Except as provided in subsection (3) of this section, the person required to make the filing must file with the Department of Transportation, or have filed with the department for the benefit of the person, proof of compliance that meets the requirements of this section and must maintain the proof of compliance as required under ORS 806.245. The filing is made on the date it is received by the department if it is received during regular business hours.

(2) The proof of compliance filed under subsection (1) of this section must be:

(a) A certificate or certificates of insurance that meet the requirements under ORS 806.270; or

(3) The owner of a motor vehicle may make a future responsibility filing under this section on behalf of the owner’s employee or a member of the owner’s immediate family or household in lieu of the filing being made by the person. Filing under this subsection permits the person on whose behalf the filing is made to operate only a motor vehicle covered by the proof of compliance given in the filing. The department shall endorse restrictions, as appropriate, on any license or driver permit the person holds as the department determines necessary to limit the person’s ability to operate vehicles consistent with this subsection.
