HAZMAT Practice Exam
Topic 406 | Page 1
I haven't seen the question yet in the training but, based on what you've written I'd say you need both, the flammable placard (1,001 lb or more of 2.1 flammable gas)AND the poison placard (any amount of 2.3).
I don't believe you can use the Dangerous placard because of the 2.3 which is a Table 1 hazmat item.
Is that the whole question?

I would agree with you, but both is not an option and the answer given is 'EXPLOSIVE'. Makes no sense to me whatsoever. And, yes, that is the whole question...I did a cut and paste from the practice exam on this site.

I think there's supposed to be a "both" answer that isn't there. I'm gonna take a look at that one. Just skip it for now.

Brett - it's question #10 in the first of four sets of HAZMAT practice questions. Here's the whole cut and paste with the given answer:
10. Your load includes 20 pounds of division 2.3 gas and .1001 pounds of flammable gas. What placard do you need? A. Flammable B. Explosive C. Poison
⊟ Answer
B. Explosive
I told you this is a tough test. Know the rules about flammable gases.

There is a question on the HAZMAT Practice Exam in the CDL Training Materials that is driving me nuts:
10. Your load includes 20 pounds of division 2.3 gas and .1001 pounds of flammable gas. What placard do you need?
A. Flammable B. Explosive C. Poison
The answer given is B, Explosive. How does this combination of class 2 materials become a class 1 material? And, a division 2.3 gas is poisonous, requiring a placard in any amount. But, explosive??
I've literally spent hours studying the training guide, and I'm just not finding why this is the answer. Any help from anyone, so that I can move on, would be greatly appreciated!
