Rosa Engomados: Today your car stays in the garage!

in Mexico City and the adjacent states, the “Hoy No Circula” program is valid on Tuesday, October 22nd. This particularly affects the vehicles with a pink sticker and the characteristics 7 and 8, which are provided with the holograms 1 or 2. These vehicles must not drive on this day to improve air quality and reduce traffic. The program is applied in all 16 districts of Mexico City and in all cities of the Estado de México.

The "Hoy No Circula" program is implemented to reduce environmental pollution during certain weather conditions. Schools, shops and other facilities will benefit from the lower number of vehicle and reduced air pollution on such days. Nevertheless, the question remains whether there will be a "double Hoy No Circula". According to the Megalopolis (Came) Commission, the current ozone levels have not caused any serious problems. Therefore, no alarm is required to deteriorate the air quality.

exceptions and regulations for other vehicles

Under certain conditions, several types of vehicle can still drive. These include:

• electrical and hybrid vehicles or cars with an ecological license plate.
• vehicles with the hologram "00" or "0".
• cars of healthcare employees who drive along with a valid license.
• vehicles for school transports and burials with valid test badges.
• cars for people with disabilities who have approval for the liberation from the "Hoy No Circula".
• public transport that meet the legal requirements.
• motorcycles and vehicles with a valid tourist pass.
• vehicles with other colored stickers that are not pink are also allowed to drive.

These measures are part of a far -reaching strategy to improve air quality in the strongly urbanized areas of Mexico. The government appeals to all vehicle owners to take these rules seriously to protect the environment and public health.
