New Jersey Statutes Title 48. Public Utilities 48 § 16-24

No autobus as defined herein shall be operated wholly or partly along any street in any city until the owner or owners thereof shall obtain the consent of the board or body having control of public streets in such city for the operation of such autobus and the use of any street or streets of said city.

No such consent shall become effective and no such operation shall be permitted until the owner of such autobus (including, for purposes of this section, autobusses with carrying capacity of not more 20 passengers) in any city shall have filed with the chief fiscal officer of the city in which said autobus shall be licensed and operated an insurance policy of a company duly licensed to transact business under the insurance laws of this State in the sum of $10,000.00 against loss from the liability imposed by law upon the autobus owner for damages on account of bodily injury or death suffered by any one person and in the sum of $100,000.00 on account of bodily injury or death suffered by more than one person, and in the sum of $5,000.00 against loss on account of property damage suffered by any person or persons as a result of an accident occurring by reason of the ownership, maintenance or use of such autobus upon the public streets of such city, and such consent shall continue effective and such operation be permitted only so long as such insurance to the full and collectible amount of $10,000.00 for one person and $100,000.00 for more than one person for bodily injuries or death and $5,000.00 for property damage shall remain in force, during the entire term of the policy. Such insurance policy shall provide for the payment of any final judgment recovered by any person on account of the ownership, maintenance and use of such autobus or any fault in respect thereto and shall be for the benefit of any person suffering loss, damage or injury as aforesaid.

A power of attorney shall be executed and delivered to such fiscal officer concurrently with the filing of a policy hereinbefore referred to, wherein and whereby the said owner shall nominate, constitute and appoint such fiscal officer his true and lawful attorney for the purpose of acknowledging service of any process out of a court of competent jurisdiction to be served against the insured by virtue of the indemnity granted under the insurance policy filed.

Any such consent may be revoked by the board or body of the municipality granting the same after notice and hearing whenever it shall appear that the person to whom such consent was granted has failed to furnish and keep in force the insurance and the power of attorney herein required, or to comply with any terms or conditions imposed by the board or body granting such consent or any law of this State.
