Provided that such person shall not be prosecuted if he produces his certificate of insurance at a police station or police post within a period of two days.
In any case where, owing to the presence of a vehicle on a road, an accident occurs involving personal injury to another person, or damage to any property, the driver of the vehicle shall at the time produce his certificate to any member of the Royal Cayman Islands Police Service on demand and to any other person who, having reasonable grounds for so doing, has required its production; and the driver shall also, as soon as possible, and in any case within twenty-four hours of the occurrence of the accident, report the accident to a police station and thereupon produce his certificate, and whoever fails to do so commits an offence and is liable on summary conviction to a fine of five hundred dollars:
Provided that a person shall not be convicted of an offence under this subsection by reason only of failure to produce his certificate if, within five days after the occurrence of the accident, he produces the certificate in person at such police station or at one of such police stations as may have been specified by him at the time its production was demanded or required or at the time the accident was reported.
