(a) All moneys or securities delivered to the assistant director as a financial security deposit shall be placed by the assistant director in the custody of the general treasurer. These assets shall be subject to execution to satisfy any judgment for damages for bodily injury or death, or injury to or destruction of property arising out of the ownership, maintenance, use, or operation of the motor vehicle with respect to which the deposit has been accepted. This deposit is subject to the same limits on amount required by this chapter for an owner's policy of liability insurance, and if the moneys or securities shall be otherwise subjected to attachment or any execution, the depositor shall immediately furnish additional moneys or securities not otherwise subject to attachment or execution to meet the requirements of this chapter.
(b) The assistant director shall not accept moneys or securities as a financial security deposit unless accompanied by evidence that there are no unsatisfied judgments against the person.
