Question:
Firefighters and police can prevent or reduce the amount of damage or injury at the scene if they know what hazardous materials are being transported. Your life, and the lives of others, may depend on quickly locating the hazardous materials shipping papers. For that reason, you must identify shipping papers related to hazardous materials or keep them on top of other shipping papers. You must also keep shipping papers:
- in a pouch on the driver's door, or
- in clear view within reach while driving, or
- on the driver's seat when out of the vehicle.
