1999–2000 Ohio Licensed Drivers By County

Note: 2000 licensed driver figures are significantly lower than 1999 due to changes in Ohio Department of Public Safety reporting and tracking methods of temporary driving permit holders. An evaluation of the figures indicate that there were approximately 20,000 fewer drivers licensed in 2000 than in 1999.
