If there is any default in the payment of any installment under any confession of judgment, the department, upon notice of such default, shall suspend the license and registration or nonresident's operating privilege of such person defaulting which shall not be restored unless and until the entire amount provided for in the confession of judgment has been paid and proof of financial responsibility has been filed. If there is any default in the payment of any installment under any duly acknowledged written agreement, the department, upon notice of such default, shall suspend the license and registration or nonresident's operating privilege of such person defaulting which shall not be restored unless and until (a) such person deposits and maintains security as required under section 60-507, in such amount as the department determines, and files proof of financial responsibility or (b) one year has elapsed following the date when such security was required and during such period no action upon such agreement has been instituted in a court in this state and such person gives proof of financial responsibility; or
