FAQ

What years of data are currently available?

Data are available only for years for which data entry has been completed by the MassDOT Registry of Motor Vehicles. Due to delays in receiving and entering data, in general the latest year for which data are available is two years prior to the current year. For example, if the current year is 2019, the latest year of available data is for year 2017. The earliest year for which data are available through this web-based query tool is 2002.
