Fines for non-compliance
Driving on a restricted day can be expensive. With the new value of the UMA in force in 2026, the economic sanctions remain as follows:
-Minimum fine (20 UMAs): 2,346 pesos
-Maximum fine (30 UMAs): 3,519 pesos
Added to this is the possible drag to the corral, which further increases the cost of neglect.
Tips to avoid setbacks
Before starting the car, take these basic recommendations into account:
-Check the official calendar of Hoy No Circula
