dc.description.abstractPollution has been a recurring theme in recent times, mainly due to its unsustainable increase, and the multitude of health complications it generates. Discussions have been focused on reducing vehicle pollution, as we can see from the 2018 vintage-specific policy launched in Santiago, Chile, policy that places heavy restrictions on older polluting cars and lighter or no restrictions on newer vehicles. In this paper, we study such vintage-specific restrictions using econometric analysis. We find a moderate effect on the renewal of the vehicle fleet in the restricted area, reducing restricted vehicles by 12 percentage points, reduction that is mainly driven by low and middle income households. Moreover, both the econometric analysis and theoretical model find that this policy only affects vehicles near to the policy discontinuity, in other words, the policy mainly displaces the newer restricted vehicles. Additionally, there is a considerable fraction of these displaced vehicles that remain on the outskirts of the restricted city, which at first seems evidence to the ineffectiveness of the policy in reducing contamination. Despite the latter, with help of the model we built, it can be argued that this policy has been welfare increasing.
