3 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“The Interstate Commerce Commission may issue a certificate or permit to a motor carrier under section 10922 or 10923 of this title [Title 49] only if the carrier files with the Commission a bond, insurance policy, or other type of security approved by the Commission. The security must be sufficient to pay, not more than the amount of the security, for each final judgment against the carrier for bodily injury to, or death of, an individual resulting from the negligent operation, maintenance, or use of motor vehicles under the certificate or permit , or for loss or damage to property (except property referred to in paragraph (3) of this subsection), or both. A certificate or permit remains in effect only as long as the carrier satisfies the requirements of this paragraph. [Emphasis added.]”
