1 Based on drivers who responsed to the questions on congestion.
2 Purpose categories of 'Other' and 'Just go for a walk' have been excluded due to small sample sizes.
3 From 2007 onwards two new categories, 'Go home' and 'Just go for a walk', have been added. See the background note for more detail.
4 Data for sample sizes of less than 100 are not shown as they are too small to provide reliable estimates.
