(3) When $1, 000 has been credited upon any judgment or
judgments rendered in excess of that amount for dam-
age to property as the result of any one accident;
resulting from the ownership, maintenance, use or operation of
a motor vehicle, then and in such event, such payment or pay-

And provided further, that a judgment debtor to whom this
section applies may, for the sole purpose of giving authority
to the Commissioner to authorize the judgment debtor to oper-

such person shall have given proof of his ability to respond
in damages for future accidents, as required in Section 187A
hereof.
