Just watched an episode of this and they reckon in the UK 70 motorbikes are written off every day .... seems an exagerrated figure somehow?

Sorry, I read it wrong, it actually says

In an average 24 hours

1369 vehicles are added to the Police register of 693415 stolen vehicles.
- 36 bikes a day.

2221 vehicles are written off and listed on the ABI Register (Category A, B, C, D insurance write-offs).
- 70 bikes a day.

I'm still not sure where 70 comes from, unless it means, of the 2221, 70 are motorcycles.
Which would mean 810665 vehicles are written off each year.
