Presentation
This is a bar chart where the different percentages are shown in dark green horizontal bars. The bar represents security methods people take to keep their cars safe by percentage. The longer the bar, the bigger the percentage. Each bar represents a different security method. The chart is arranged so that the most common item is on the top, and it descends from there in order to the bottom. The percentages may not add up to 100% because it’s possible to choose more than one answer.
