What does a driver need to transport dangerous goods?
- Life insurance
- A logbook
- Training ✓
- A letter
Answer: C. Training
To transport dangerous goods, you need proper training and certification.
Why this is the answer
The handbook says dangerous goods pose a serious hazard and that anyone who has anything to do with them has significant legal responsibilities. It states those people must be properly trained and appropriately certified. A related fact box adds that your employer must certify that you have had appropriate training, and that you carry your training certificate while transporting dangerous goods. That is why training is the requirement listed here; the other choices are not mentioned in these passages.
Why the other answers are wrong
- A. Life insurance — Life insurance is not mentioned in the passages as a requirement for transporting dangerous goods.
- B. A logbook — A logbook is not described in these passages as the requirement for dangerous goods transport; the passages point to training and certification.
- D. A letter — A letter is not mentioned in the passages; what the passages require is training and carrying a training certificate.
Remember it
Link dangerous goods to the training certificate you must carry.
