This was due to the usual end last Saturday, 30 June. The exemption applies to residents who live near the former SCUT motorways such as the Via do Infante (A22).
The benefit of the current exemptions is the first 10 trips in a month are free of charge and a discount of 15 percent on all subsequent journeys along the local motorway.

According to the latest report from the InIR, the A22 had an Average Daily Traffic (ADT) in the first quarter of 2012 of 5,588 vehicles, compared to 12,889 vehicles daily in 2011 where there were no tolls.

Whereas the situation for residents with transponders is still unclear of how many free journeys can be done as the government still has not made figures available.
The Comissão de Utentes da Via do Infante (CUVI) reported that in the first quarter of 2012, traffic accidents and serious injuries are "more than doubled and fatalities are higher on the EN125 and other secondary roads, than the same period last year".
What will happen during summer time, when traffic figures are more than double as they are now?
