The environmental contingency has just been activated in the metropolitan area, and honestly, I didn't realize it would be so complicated to understand which cars are allowed to go out. The air quality is quite poor due to ozone, so the Double No-Drive Day applies in CDMX and Edomex, meaning more vehicles are parked than usual.

In case you need to go out, basically, cars with hologram 2, hologram 1 cars with plates ending in odd numbers, and vehicles without verification are not allowed to circulate. If you have hologram 0 or 00 with a red sticker and a plate ending in 3 or 4, you're also restricted. Taxis have a restriction from 10:00 to 22:00 hours. But if your car is electric or hybrid, you're safe—those can circulate without any problem.

Authorities say that between 1:00 PM and 7:00 PM is when pollution is at its worst, so if possible, avoid going out during that time. Especially if you have respiratory or cardiovascular issues. The recommendation is to stay tuned to the Aire app to see how everything evolves. We don't know how long this will last; it depends on how air quality conditions change in the coming days.
