§ 1809-d. Mandatory surcharge for violation of maximum speed limits in
highway construction or maintenance work areas. 1. Notwithstanding any
other provision of law, whenever proceedings in an administrative
tribunal or court result in a finding of liability or conviction for a
violation of paragraph two of subdivision (d) or subdivision (f) of
section eleven hundred eighty of this chapter or any other statute,
local law, ordinance or rule involving the maximum speed limits in
highway construction or maintenance work areas, there shall be levied a
mandatory surcharge in addition to any other sentence, fine or penalty
otherwise permitted or required, in the amount of fifty dollars. Such
surcharge shall not be deemed a monetary penalty for the purposes of

the administrative code of the city of New York.

2. The mandatory surcharge provided for in subdivision one of this
section shall be paid to the clerk of the court or administrative

days of the month next succeeding the collection of such surcharge, the
collecting authority shall pay such money to the state comptroller to be
deposited in the highway construction and maintenance safety education
fund established by section ninety-nine-n of the state finance law.
