§ 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

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.
