        (2)         If the proceeds of the sale are insufficient to pay the reasonable expenses incurred by the Commissioner in selling the vehicle (the selling expenses ), the offender is liable to pay to the Commissioner an amount specified by the Commissioner as being equivalent to the selling expenses that remain to be recovered.
