$. These figures are for the financial years (April to March) which start in the relevant year (eg the "1995" figures are for the 1995-96 financial year).
# There is a break in series between 1998/99 and 1999/00 because DfT has revised the figures for 1999/00 onwards.
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. Freight lifted in Scotland by UK-registered hauliers, regardless of whether the destination is in Scotland, elsewhere in the UK or outwith the UK. The figures for 2004 onwards are not comparable with those for earlier years, due to changes to the methodology and processing system for the survey.
3. Again, all freight lifted in Scotland.
