The graph below gives information about car ownership in Britain from 1971 to 2007.

The chart indicates data about the

number

of

cars

owned by households in Great Britain over a span of 36 years, from 1971 to 2007.

Overall

, the

number

of

people

who owned more than one car increased throughout

this

period of time.

In contrast

, the

number

of

people

with no possession of

cars

decreased. In 1971 approximately 1% of

people

had a regular use of three or more

cars

, but

this

amount rose gradually to just above 7% in 2007.

Moreover

, in 1971 nearly 8% of individuals had two

cars

and

this

number

surged dramatically to 28% in 2007. It can be seen from

this

graph that almost half of households used no

cars

regularly in 1971.

However

, the

number

of

people

in possession of no

cars

declined significantly to exactly one-fourth in 2007.

Additionally

, the

number

of one-car users stayed almost constant and fluctuated during

this

period at just under 45%.
