CDL · Hazardous materials
Your CDL has no HazMat endorsement. Under which condition is it legal for you to haul hazardous materials?
Correct answer: When the vehicle needs no placards.
Answer options
- AWhen a driver with the endorsement rides along
- BWhen the vehicle needs no placards Correct
- CWhen the trip stays within a single state
Why
A HazMat endorsement is required only when the vehicle must display placards. A small shipment that does not trigger placarding may be hauled without it, but keeping the trip inside one state or bringing along an endorsed driver does not replace the endorsement.
