These guidelines clarify which cars can travel and which must remain parked:<\/p>\n<p><!-- BREAK 3 --><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cars permitted to circulate on Saturdays<\/li>\n<li>Cars required to stay off the road on Saturdays<\/li>\n<li>Cars restricted on alternating Saturdays<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Restrictions are typically enforced between \u00a05:00 AM and 10:00 PM\u00a0 on Saturdays, meaning vehicles can operate without limits outside these hours, allowing for nighttime mobility.<\/p>\n<p><!-- BREAK 4 --><\/p>\n<p>With these parameters in mind, the next step is to consider the \u00a0hologram\u00a0 classification and registration plate of your vehicle. For instance, vehicles with a \u00a0hologram 2\u00a0 are entirely prohibited from circulation. However, cars with \u00a0hologram 0\u00a0 and \u00a0hologram 00\u00a0 can circulate freely as they are deemed the least polluting.<\/p>\n<p><!-- BREAK 6 --><\/p>\n<p>When it comes to \u00a0hologram 1\u00a0, restrictions hinge on the calendar. For instance, on \u00a0Saturday, July 5, 2025\u00a0, vehicles bearing \u00a0hologram 1\u00a0 and odd-numbered plates must stay off the roads. Conversely, next week those with even-numbered plates will be restricted.<\/p>\n<p><!-- BREAK 7 --><\/p>\n<p>There are exceptions to these restrictions. Vehicles that can operate freely include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Electric or natural gas vehicles<\/li>\n<li>Cars with disabled person plates<\/li>\n<li>Vehicles involved in urban transport services (including hearses)<\/li>\n<li>Those dedicated to transporting children or passengers<\/li>\n<li>Vehicles for public safety and civil protection<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"article-asset article-asset-normal article-asset-center\">\n<div class=\"desvio-container\">\n<div class=\"desvio\">\n<div class=\"desvio-figure js-desvio-figure\">\n     <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Contamination's effects\" width=\"375\" height=\"142\" src=\"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/1749870835_917_Which-cars-are-allowed-to-drive-and-which-ones-are.jpeg\"\/>\n   <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Failing to comply with these \u00a0restrictions\u00a0 can result in steep penalties, ranging from \u00a020 to 30 times the Unit of Measurement and Update (UMA)\u00a0, which translates to fines of approximately \u00a01,924.40 pesos\u00a0 to \u00a02,886.60 pesos\u00a0.<\/p>\n<p><!-- BREAK 9 --><\/p>\n<p>In summary, understanding the &#8220;Hoy No Circula&#8221; program is essential for residents and commuters in Mexico City and surrounding areas.
