ALL TANKERS transporting dangerous materials must now carry a sign describing the hazards of their load.
The regulations require road tankers carrying single or multi-loads of any of about 400 common dangerous chemicals — including hazardous wastes — to display special hazard warning panels designed to give vital information to the public and emergency services in the event of an incident.
Use of the sign only extends to the UK domestic traffic and extends only to those chemicals for which Hazchem codes have been agreed in the Home Office Joint Committee on Fire Brigade Operations Working Party on Hazchem and confirmed by the Health and Safety Executive.
The composite sign must be displayed in a prominent position on the rear and also both sides of road tank vehicles.
Full information on the latest requirements were given in CM, February 2, 1979.
