Details

Between April and June 2014 a survey of 3,592 registered vehicle keepers was undertaken to determine the level of traceability of registered keepers from the details held on DVLA records.

The result will inform one of DVLA’s Secretary of State Targets, namely to maintain the accuracy of the vehicle register so that a registered keeper can be traced from details held on record in at least 95% of cases.
