The given picture illustrates the proportions of different categories of transports used for travelling from 1985 and 2015 in a particular country. Looking from an overall perspective, it can be seen that while cars underwent an upward trend over the period shown, the opposite was true for bus. Notably, there was a mix changing patterns with regard to rail and others. Additionally, car surpassed bus to take the lead from 1990 forward.
In 1985, bus had the highest figure at neck-and-neck 60%, then it experienced a dramatic drop to reach a low of less than 10% after 15 years and a final slight increase to 10% in 2015. Undergoing an opposite trend, the figure for car started at 25%, ranking second, after which it significantly rose to reach a peak of 80% in 2000 before ending the period at 70% in 2015.
Moving to the remainder, the numbers of journeys made by rail and other transports recorded approximately 20% and 10% in the year 1985, respectively. Both categories witnessed a gradual decline over the next five years. Although there was a mix changing patterns with regard to rail and others, there were relatively no changes in 2015.
