The line graph compares the number of cars stolen for every 1000 vehicles in four countries from 1990 to 1999.

The chart illustrates differences of the proportion of car thefts per 1000 transport in four different states, namely: Great

Britain

,

Sweden

,

France

and

Canada

over a nine-year period.

Overall

, there are two general trends: upward and downward. Whilst the number of theft in

Sweden

climbed, the figures for Great

Britain

,

France

and

Canada

declined. Between 1990 and 1992, there was a partial growth in the trends of Great

Britain

and

Sweden

by around 3000;

however

, by following two years, trends of

France

and

Canada

reduced moderately. The quantity of cars stolen in

Sweden

reached approximately 14000 by around 7000,over a six year period from 1993. Before declining to back again, the figures of

France

and

Canada

grew minimally from 1993 to 1998. The trend of Great

Britain

registered generally a mild fluctuation during nine years. At the middle of the trend increased sharply at around 19000 and again declined to under 17000.
