The bond or policy of insurance shall be maintained in its original amount by the registrant at the registrant's expense at all times during the period for which the registration is in effect. In the event two (2) or more certificates of registration are issued to one (1) registrant, one (1) such bond or policy of insurance may be furnished to cover two (2) or more pedal cabs, and each bond or policy shall be of a type where coverage shall be restored automatically after the occurrence of any accident or event from which liability may thereafter accrue.

(c) Any bond posted under this section shall be accompanied by good and sufficient sureties approved by the license administrator.
(d) The license administrator shall notify the registrant under this chapter of any claim of which the city has notice, where such claim arises from the operation or maintenance of any pedal cab.
(e) The failure to maintain the bond or policy required under this section throughout the entire term of a registration shall constitute a violation of this Code.
