    Never saw a hazmat car hauler anything.

    Jesus would likely to return before that happens. I think your leg is being pulled.

    Yeah that's what he said no endoresement required but he also indicated that "techanically" they are considered Hazmat because of several contents in autos but your 100% right about not needing endorsements or placards

    Question 8: Are motor vehicles being transported considered to be HM for purposes of the financial responsibility requirements, thus requiring the higher limits set forth in the regulations?

    Guidance: Yes. Even though vehicles being transported by motor vehicle are subject only to 49 CFR 173.220 of the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMRs), they meet the definition of “Hazardous material” in 49 CFR 171.8 because “Vehicle, flammable gas powered” and “Vehicle, flammable liquid powered” are designated as hazardous in 49 CFR 172.101 [UN 3166]. For that reason, vehicles transporting other vehicles would have to carry $1,000,000 of public liability insurance.

    That may be part of the equation too.

    I just don't like it because it makes a #### mess.
