| ||
2. A description of the vehicle, including such | ||

standard | ||
rating as may be prescribed by the Secretary.
| ||
3. Information
relating to the
insurance policy for the | ||
motor vehicle, including the name of the insurer which | ||
issued the policy, the policy number, and the expiration | ||
date of the policy.
| ||
4. Such further information as may reasonably be | ||
required by the
Secretary to enable him to determine | ||
whether the vehicle is
lawfully entitled to registration | ||
and the owner entitled to a certificate
of title.
| ||
5. An affirmation by the applicant that all information | ||
set forth is
true and correct. If the
application is for | ||
the registration of a motor vehicle, the applicant also
| ||
shall affirm that the motor vehicle is insured as required | ||
by this Code,
that such insurance will be maintained | ||
throughout the period for which the
motor vehicle shall be | ||
registered, and that neither the owner, nor any
person | ||
operating the motor vehicle with the owner's permission, | ||
shall
operate the motor vehicle unless the required | ||
insurance is in effect. If
the person signing the | ||
affirmation is not the sole owner of the vehicle,
such | ||
person shall be deemed to have affirmed on behalf of all | ||
the owners of
the vehicle. If the person signing the | ||
affirmation is not an owner of the
vehicle, such person | ||
shall be deemed to have affirmed on behalf of the
owner or | ||
owners of the vehicle. The lack of signature on the | ||
application
shall not in any manner exempt the owner or | ||
owners from any provisions,
requirements or penalties of | ||
this Code.
| ||
(b) When such application refers to a new vehicle purchased | ||
from a
dealer the application shall be accompanied by a | ||
Manufacturer's Statement
of Origin from the dealer, and a | ||
statement showing any lien retained by the
dealer.
