Find out about the ‘Pico y Placa’ for this Wednesday, December 2

Since September 22, the peak and plate returned to Bogotá. However, many citizens remain confused with the operation of this restriction, even more so in the conditions of the ‘new normal’. So, as a service information, Infobae presents the restrictions for private vehicles, organized under the model of even and odd plates. This peak and plaque agenda is scheduled for Wednesday, December 2nd.

Its hours in the capital district are from Monday to Friday from 6:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. and from 3:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.

In this way, cars whose license plate ends in:

2,4,6,8 and 0.

And to conclude, the peak and plate measurement does not cover the shared car, a mechanism that must be activated on the website of the Ministry of Mobility. It must be done weekly, since the spike and plate system is rotary.

Keep in mind that failure to comply with the measure is exposed to a fine of 15 SMDLV, which is equivalent to 438,000 pesos, and the immobilization of the vehicle.

In addition to these restrictions, the post-quarantine ‘new normal’ has new exceptions for the beak and plate. These include: hybrid vehicles (gas or electricity), health personnel who use their private vehicle, vehicles whose owners are registered in the Pico y Placa Solidario, and vehicles with three or more occupants, the so-called “carpooling” They will not have restriction to transit.
