1. Results to 1994 are taken from geographical analysis provided by DVLA. Results
for 1995 onwards are estimated using post town area data. The vehicle taxation
system was subject to major revisions from July 1995.
2. A change in the level of vehicle excise duty for taxis and hire cars in the
1989 budget led to a fall in the number licensed as public transport vehicles.
For years up to 1994 estimates of public transport vehicles include some with
8 or fewer seats. From 1995 onwards estimates include only those vehicles with
more than 8 seats.
3. From 1 October 1990, goods vehicles up to 3,500 kg gross vehicle weight were
transferred from the "Goods" taxation group to the Private and Light Goods group.
