16        (b)  A  fine  may be imposed in addition to a sentence of

21    offense  relating to parking or registration, or offense by a
22    pedestrian, an additional penalty of  $5  for  each  $40,  or
23    fraction  thereof, of fine imposed. The additional penalty of

26    upon a plea of guilty, stipulation of facts  or  findings  of

31    sentencing. Not later than March 1 of each year  the  Circuit
