State police, to pay for their average of 40hrs of "OT" per week, lavish retirement benefits calculated to give them their maximum salary for life (at that 80hr/wk rate), and road trips to Vegas.

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?

that 11% stat reeks of bullshite

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.
