    Back in high school when I was slinging boxes for UPS we had to keep a copy of each hazmat box bol in the back of the trailer for the driver to keep with him.

    Keep those bills in the door when you leave the truck or within reach while driving. And that's within reach with your seatbelt on. Also wear your seatbelt

    This is absolutely correct. Ran into this all of the time when I did LTL freight.

    Our training films repeatedly state shipper is responsible to provide placards, driver is required to maintain them during the trip.

    The percentage of the solution and packaging do suggest ORM -D. What is the HM label on the packaging...it should read 'ORM-D" or Corrosive unless designated as a 'Limited quantity'...

    If the material is Haz Mat, the boxes will be marked accordingly. Either way, a few cases should be far under the 1000 pound threshold for placarding.

    Doesnt matter what you think. Once that "X" is marked it is a hazmat load. Then you hsve to see if it meets placarding requirements. I.e. 1001 lbs, and such.

    I'm wondering if any drivers actually know the hazmat regs any more, it seems the simplest questions are being asked.

    Is it supposed to be marked even if its under 1000lbs? I get small hazmat items where I work and they never say what it is. They just put it on the truck in a separate container thats covered and sealed.
