SELECTED HIGHWAY STATISTICS 1973

Annual series of selected statistical tabulations are presented which relate to highway transportation in 3 major areas: highway use - the ownership and operation of motor vehicles; highway finance - the receipts and expenditures for highways by public agencies; and the highway plant - the extent and changing characteristics of the mileage of public highways, roads and streets. The statistics presented here have been analyzed and reported on a calendar year basis using procedures which provide comparability of values among states. The tables on motor fuel provides an analysis of fuel consumption, as well as rates and revenues. Motor vehicle and driver licensing statistics cover vehicle registration, drivers' licenses, rates and revenues, and travel characteristics. Detailed coverage is given to federal fuel and automotive taxes, the Highway Trust Fund, highway finance and mileage of public roads and streets.
