11     set forth is true and correct. If the application is for

14     by this Code, that such insurance will be maintained
15     throughout the period for which the motor vehicle shall be
16     registered, and that neither the owner, nor any person
17     operating the motor vehicle with the owner's permission,
18     shall operate the motor vehicle unless the required
19     insurance is in effect. If the person signing the
20     affirmation is not the sole owner of the vehicle, such
21     person shall be deemed to have affirmed on behalf of all
22     the owners of the vehicle. If the person signing the
23     affirmation is not an owner of the vehicle, such person
24     shall be deemed to have affirmed on behalf of the owner or
25     owners of the vehicle. The lack of signature on the
26     application shall not in any manner exempt the owner or
