Licensed vehicles may use public roads; registered vehicles include those whose licences have lapsed. Hybrids are usually counted as petrol. First-registered figures are new plates that month, not the stock of each make already on the road. The make and fuel stories are private cars only; class covers every vehicle type. Government vehicles are a separate class in the monthly digest.
