All money collected on any indemnity bond or insurance policy as the result of any damage or injury to any such toll bridge or other highway crossing, transportation facilities, or additional transportation facilities shall be used for the purpose of repairing or rebuilding the toll bridge or other highway crossing, transportation facilities, or additional transportation facilities, as long as there are revenue bonds against any such structure outstanding and unredeemed. 30453. The commission may also carry insurance or indemnity bonds insuring against the loss of tolls or other revenues to be derived from any toll bridge or other highway crossing, transportation facilities, or additional transportation facilities by reason of any interruption in the use of the toll bridge or other highway crossing, transportation facilities, or additional transportation facilities from any cause whatever. The proceeds of the insurance or indemnity bonds shall be paid into the fund into which the tolls and other revenues of the bridge or other highway crossing, transportation facilities, or additional transportation facilities so insured are required to be paid and shall be applied to the same purposes and in the same manner as other money in the fund.
