A large group of vehicles that circulate in our country may already have the appropriate DGT label, which classifies them according to their emissions and entitles them to travel in low emission zones, as well as enjoy various tax incentives.
And the fact is that the General Directorate of Traffic is fighting for sustainability in Spain, and for this it allows vehicles with a DGT sticker. have certain advantages over other vehicles that pollute the environment..
As you well know, you Environmental labels DGT classify half of the vehicles that circulate in our country from 0 emissions, passing through Eco, through the C label and through the B label. The rest of the vehicles not eligible for the label, polluting, have restricted distribution through the ZBE, which will become serious from next year .
And that is that from January 1, 2023, cities with a population of more than 50,000 people must have a low emission zone in accordance with the climate change and energy transition law, which came into force on May 22, 2021.
At the moment, Madrid and Barcelona, along with three cities such as Rivas Vasiamadrid (Madrid), Sant Cugat del Vallès (Barcelona) and San Juan Despi (Barcelona), are the only places in Spain that have identified a low level emissions. Zone.
In particular, the ZBE of Madrid includes the Centro and Plaza Elíptica areas, while the Barcelona area is bounded by Roda de Dalt and Ronda del Litoral.
The DGT does not require, but recommends, the use of environmental labels to be displayed in a prominent place, but the responsibility for this lies with the municipalities and, for example, the Madrid City Council requires the mandatory wearing of environmental labels in a prominent place. . Failure to comply with this rule will result in a fine of 90 euros.
Gijón City Council recently ruled that all vehicles eligible for the DGT label must display it prominently so that they can drive and park within the municipality of Gijón.
Both Madrid and Barcelona access control to the low radiation zone is carried out using camerasrather, these devices are equipped with technology that allows them to detect non-compliance with the vehicle license plate.
If your vehicle has an eco-label and you don’t, you can get one from any post office for a price of five euros, on presentation of a valid circulation permit.
