    Only once and it was only single finger don't remember for sure if it was index or thumb, but it was on a pharmaceutical load. I also had to let them make copies of my ID and when delivering I had to scan my ID into this box to get into the facility.

    Yep ... and as Land Shark said we are really all fingerprinted for Hazmat loads, as well as anything that requires a TWIC card.

    I would say needing safety training to be allowed on a shipper / receives site is more noteworthy. Like the short MSHA video to be allowed on mines when all you are doing is driving a van trailer on a nice road to a dock no where near heavy equipment or mining operations.

    Ever been required to have a HAZWOPER 40 Cert and some serious site specific training that included the phrase "When in this zone, if you hear this warning sound *insert sound*, hold your breath and run to a safety station and immediately don an SCBA"?
