5. There is established in the General Fund a separate, nonlapsing, dedicated account to be known as the "Highway Safety Fund." All fines, penalties and forfeitures imposed and collected as a result of the enforcement of section 4 of P.L.2003, c.131 (C.39:3-20.3) and 50 percent of all fines and penalties imposed and collected in enforcement of section 5 of P.L.1983, c.401 (C.39:5B-29), and the increase from the doubling of fines imposed and collected pursuant to section 1 of P.L.1993, c.332 (C.39:4-203.5) in designated safe corridor areas shall be forwarded to the State Treasurer for deposit into the Highway Safety Fund account. The fund shall be administered by the Department of Transportation which shall establish a grant program to fund local law enforcement agencies for special enforcement efforts associated with this act. The department shall annually, in conjunction with the Division of State Police, submit a report on the results of the safe corridor areas and a list of highway safety projects and programs paid for by the fund within the past year to the Senate Transportation Committee and the Assembly Transportation Committee, the President and minority leader of the Senate, and the Speaker and the minority leader of the General Assembly. The moneys in the account shall be used exclusively for highway safety projects and programs, including education, enforcement, capital improvements and such other related measures and undertakings as the Department of Transportation and the Division of State Police may deem appropriate to foster highway safety.
