Upon notice from the owner of a secured motor vehicle stating that the secured motor vehicle will not be operated on public roads or highways during a period of not less than thirty consecutive days, the basic no-fault insurer of the vehicle shall suspend on a pro rata basis or shall offer a similar credit, to the extent requested by the owner, insurance coverage afforded under the policy providing the security for payment of basic no-fault benefits and the liabilities covered under the motor vehicle liability insurance for the secured motor vehicle until notified by the owner that the coverage should be reinstated. The owner may not be required to surrender the number plates during the policy suspension period. During the period of suspension, subsections 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, and 7 of section 26.1-41-02 do not apply with respect to the secured motor vehicle, but if the secured motor vehicle is operated by or with the permission of the owner during the period of suspension, subsections 1, 2, 4, 5, and 7 of section 26.1-41-02 become applicable. This section does not apply to an owner of a secured motor vehicle for which proof of financial responsibility is required under the financial responsibility laws of this state.
