    When he pulls up your Mcs-150B it should show on his computer..

    And there's no regulation saying you have to have a copy of the 150 with you......

    That I know of .

    Shoulda tagged you as well... glad you found it here. I've never heard of it, either.....at all. It COULD be a "cali" thing, or maybe border crossing? I do neither these days, but like to keep up with the regs.

    There is a federal permit. When you sign the hazardous waste manifest you were supposed to put your transporter number on there.

    Seems the permit is just for the top shelf products.....

    And 392.2 seems to be the entire operating code.......and the 1160.4 is a CA thing.

    Something is screwy with this ....

    10 years ago was working for company involved in military logistic. Company policy was " non stop run". Only fuel and driver switch stops were allowed.
    Early morning on I-80 east just out of Sacramento loaded with aircraft fire extinguishers with placards Non flammable gas.
    Got pulled over for inspection.
    DOT monkey checked everything under truck no any issue.
    Let me see your HM permits.
    California permit was OK but Alliance was old.
    Please come inside.
    Three heavily armed fat person in uniform inside the scale.
    Do you know why we pulled you over?
    No, I don't . To do your job I guess.
    We pulled you over because you don't have a padlock on your trailer. Trailer is loaded with HM and terrorists can use HM from your trailer against the public of California.
    My jaw dropped.
    Drop your trailer, wake up co driver to watch the trailer. Go to Home Depot across the I-80 for padlock.
    OK got padlock for 50 cents the smallest one.
    Now you good to go, here is your citation.
    Don't remember exact numbers need to look on it, Unsecured HM, permits not up to date.
    Submitted citation to the company supervisor. He promised to take care. ####.
    Next day company collapsed due to economic downfall and they left me ONE on ONE vs California.
    Judge in California Supreme Court surprised me with new interpretation of my violation.
    Unsafe vehicle condition.
    Unlicensed transportation HM.
    " Your hones in my citation......."
    Shut up or I'll order to arrest you!!!!
    Boomm
    10,000 fine.
    California is a cancer tumor on USA body.
    Ask any CARb complaint truck O/O
    Don't know what type of therapy will help.
    Radiotherapy?
    Chemio?
    Or amputation?
    Russians and Mexicans can split it to enjoy, I'll not regret.


    i-80 East

    Just wondering if anyone has had this happen? I figured the closest thing I have to a federal hazmat transportation license is my endorsement on my CDL.[/QUOTE]
