Deen, Chief Judge.

The appellant was injured when his vehicle was struck by a truck belonging to Wood Trucking Company, a motor carrier operating under a Class B certificate of use and convenience granted it by the Georgia Public Service Commission. In lieu of the bond otherwise required in such cases, which is expressly stated to be for the benefit of the public, the commission may allow the certificate owner to substitute an insurance policy "which policy must substantially conform to all of the provisions relating to bonds and must likewise be approved by the commission.” Code § 68-509.
