* ↑ For additional details of publicly owned vehicles and of trucks, buses, and trailers registered, see tables MV-7, 9, 10, and 11, respectively.
* ↑ Data reported by the States were supplemented in some instances by information from other sources in order to present registrations as uniformly as possible. Where registration year is not more than 1 month removed from the calendar year, registrations year data are given. Where the registration year is more than 1 month removed, registrations are given for the calendar year.
* ↑ Includes Federal, State, county and municipal vehicles. Vehicles owned by the military services are not included.
* ↑ The following farm trucks, registered at a nominal fee and restricted to use in the vicinity of the owner’s farm, are not included in this table: Connecticut, 5,369; New Hampshire, 3,523; New Jersey, 9,561; New York, 12,967; Rhode Island, 1,997.
* ↑ In Alabama a pickup truck that its a person’s sole means of transportation is registered at the passenger-car rate. The estimated number of pickup trucks has been deducted from reported passenger-car registrations and added to truck registrations.
* ↑ Privately owned school buses are included with trucks.
* ↑ Commercial full trailers are included with trucks.
* ↑ In Oregon, trucks with gross weights of 4,500 pounds ore less, and in Vermont, trucks under 1,500 pounds capacity are not segregated from automobiles. In most States for which truck weight data are available, similar light trucks comprise approximately half of all trucks registered.
* ↑ Washington changed its registration year to a calendar year basis. The conversion schedule used resulted in the 1953 registrations shown here being for the 13½ months from Nov. 16, 1952 to Dec 31, 1953, and are therefore not entirely compatible to those for previous years.
* ↑ Includes 1,563 automobiles of the diplomatic corps.
