What cars are exempt?
They are outside the measure:
-Vehicles with hologram 0 or 00
-Electric or hybrid cars

If your car belongs to one of these groups, you can drive without restrictions.
Will there be a Double Not Circulating Today?
No. This Friday there is no environmental contingency, so the measure operates regularly, without additional restrictions or extensions to the program.

How much is the fine?
