Dangerous Goods Markings, Placards, and Labels - What Would you Do?

Scenario: You’re a driver picking up a mixed load of dangerous goods from one consignor that includes the following amounts packaged in small means of containment:

  • Class 3 Flammable liquid, Gross Mass 800 kg
  • Class 2.2 Non-flammable gas, Gross Mass 1,100 kg
  • Class 8 Corrosive, Gross Mass 1,500 kg

Since there are multiple hazard classes that are in two or more small means of containment, can you display only the DANGER placard on the vehicle?

Yes

No

Dangerous Goods Markings, Placards, and Labels - What Would you Do?: Answer

Answer: No. Since the Class 2.2 Non-flammable gas and Class 8 Corrosive both exceed 1,000 kg, those individual placards must be displayed. If all three hazard classes were under 1,000 kg, you would be able to display only the DANGER placard on the vehicle.
