    Aren't they required to be displayed on the front of the trailer?

    If it is a trailer can be used for hauling hazmat yes. We had a few old trailers used for local non haz that the placard holders were removed as was the inspection panel on the front. Only had the dot annual inspection sticker.

    You beat me to the punch. A VIK is only required if the tank will be hauling hazmat. And the stickers can be on the front out on the sides near the front of the trailer.
     
    spindrift Thanks this.

    We have many tanks with
    Non code sticker on the front
    That in place of needing the vik, tuc and pressure inspections
    Still need the annual inspection

    So, with HazMat, you have tanks with annual inspection only?

    And they must be located at the front of the trailer...
    Looking for clarification on that one.
