The line graph illustrates data regarding household car ownership trends in Britain over a thirty-year period from 1975 to 2005.
Overall, car ownership in Britain changed over the period, with single-car households remaining the most common. While the percentage of households with no cars decreased significantly, households owning two or three cars saw a steady rise.
In 1975, 45% of British households owned one car, which was higher than households with no cars at 42%. Meanwhile, households with two cars and three cars were much lower at 7% and 3%, respectively. By 1985, the number of households with no cars dropped sharply to 25%, and single-car ownership decreased to 37%, whereas homes with two cars increased to 14%.
For the rest of the period, these trends continued with some changes. In 2005, households with no cars went down to 21%, while single-car ownership increased again to reach 45%. At the same time, the figures for two-car and three-car households continued to grow, ending at 18% and 9%, respectively.
