    As per the given bar graph , we have
    Number of the road accidents by bus in the year 2008 = 30 thousands
    Number of the road accidents by car in the year 2012 = 40 thousands
    Required ratio = Number of the road accidents by bus in the year 2008 : Number of the road accidents by car in the year 2012

    Correct Option: D

    As per the given bar graph , we have
    Number of the road accidents by bus in the year 2008 = 30 thousands
    Number of the road accidents by car in the year 2012 = 40 thousands
    Required ratio = Number of the road accidents by bus in the year 2008 : Number of the road accidents by car in the year 2012
    ∴ Required ratio = 30 : 40 = 3 : 4
