    The answers are in the manual. If they're not, you have the wrong manual. That's part of the process ... learning how to read and comprehend and FIND the answer. It may not jump out at you, but they're there. We could provide the answers, but honestly, should we?

    I'll admit to having to re-read the HM stuff several times to make sure I got all the nuances. You can get lost in the numbers for sure. But STexan is right. Read it again, then again if necessary. You WILL get it.

    Those are my answers for those q's from what I remember. Yeah, you better read up on your manual for sure. Also, check the CDL practice tests up on top of this site.

    As I have read and you can now see, no one on this forum is going to give you the answers to any test. Theres something call "Hardwork". Try it. As others from earlier post have already suggested, read the book. When you work hard for something and you prevail at it, you come to appreciate yourself and your dilligence and ambition even more. No disrespect, but trucking may not be for you if you think there is an "EASY". This isnt Home Depot.

    Haha. I was actually just kinda educational guessing. But yeah, totally agree with ya. If you can't pass the HazMat test, you probably should consider hauling something else. Thx.
