    (d) Each month the auditor of state shall inform the department of the amounts allocated to each unit of local government from the local road and street account.
    SECTION 2. [EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 2004] (a) For purposes of allocating money under IC 8-14-2-4, as amended by this act, the auditor of state shall use the number of pickup truck registrations in calculating a county's allocative share as follows:
