Canadian Vehicle Survey

Annual 2000

The Canadian Vehicle Survey measures the activity of all on-road vehicles registered in Canada except some vehicles such as motorcycles, construction equipment and road maintenance equipment.

Vehicles covered in the survey travelled an estimated 310.5 billion kilometres. Among them, vehicles weighing less than 4 500 kilograms (and not used as a bus) travelled 282.0 billion kilometres, or 91% of the total during the year.

Estimates of total vehicle-kilometres are available by province and territory. Estimates of passenger-kilometres are available by province only.

The publication The Canadian Vehicle Survey, Annual, 2000 (53-223-XIE, free) is now available on Statistics Canada's Web site (). From Our products and services page, choose Free publications, then Transport and warehousing.
