Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

THE NUMBER of heavy goods vehicles above 1,525kg increased last year by three per cent 10 525,000, according to Department of Transport statistics released this week.

However, the change in vehicle excise duty categorisation means that the figures are not comparable with previous years.

The number of goods vehicles in each category at December 1983 was: Below 3.5 tonnes: 77,000; 3.512 tonnes: 164,000; 12-13 tonnes: 228,000; over 33 tonnes: 11,000; and others: 7,000.
