To no longer earmark $10 million collected by courts from a surcharge imposed on traffic ticket fines to a “secondary road patrol and training fund,” and instead use $15 million in annual liquor tax revenue for this purpose. The money pays to have State Police patrol local roads in some jurisdictions, allowing them to essentially shift a portion of their public safety expenses to state taxpayers.
