i just looked up our receipts from motor vehicles tax for the month, and it was ~30 million, which roughly implies over 300 mil for the year. you're saying all that costs us 300mil/year, and all comes from the transportation trust fund?

50% goes to pay for salaries, benefits, and maintenance at DOTD headquarters.
11% goes to building and maintaining roads and bridges
The rest goes to state police, for the most part.
