Well, this thread has been an education to me. Always happy to learn something. Even when it makes me look foolish.

 

Ditto that, man. On the RARE occasion I haul 2582 or 2794 (which is seldom to none...) I'd need to have that info. Told the bossman; printed the regs for him... as well. Any day I don't learn a dang thing, is a day I lost a brain cell. And I don't partake in MJ~~! Thanks, guys.. we ALL learned a bit.. i'm stymied but glad as well, bro.

 

That is the first page of my very thick permit book.

 

THIS ^^^^ is my first enlightenment, as well. Thanks again, O/P.. not meaning that in ANY derogatory way; you've just enlightened many a man... hopefully NOT at your own expense.

Be safe~

I just took the HazMat Test, not asked, nor was it mentioned during the various sleep medications, I mean manual reading and stdying. They should at least mention this, they mention just about everything else at least once, if not twice.

 

Yup, he was right. Although I would not allow putting HM violations on a level 3 inspection.

According to 107.601(a)(6), among other things, HM registration is required for: "a quantity of hazardous material that requires placarding".

As previously posted, you, "must carry a copy of its current Certificate of Registration issued by PHMSA or another document bearing the registration number identified as the “U.S. DOT Hazmat Reg. No.” on board each truck."

You must have the authority letter itself or the number properly indicated on "a document".
