When an insurance carrier has certified a motor vehicle liability policy under § 31-32-21 or 31-32-22, and the certified policy is subsequently cancelled or terminated by the insurance carrier, a notice of cancellation or termination of the insurance so certified shall be filed, by the insurance carrier, in the division of motor vehicles. However, a policy subsequently procured and certified shall, on the effective date of its certification, terminate the insurance previously certified with respect to any vehicle designated in both certificates.
