1 Answers
Warning signs for hazardous material vehicles should be hung at the triangular beacon light positioned at the front center of the top surface of the driver's cab. The identification plate must be fixed on the right side of the vehicle's rear, corresponding to the license plate, and should not be randomly hung or placed inside the driver's cab. Warning label specifications: For tanker vehicles, the words "Hazardous Material" (large red reflective font) should be painted in the center of the upper part of the color bands on both sides of the tank. The font should be bold, with a minimum height of 250mm. For vehicles transporting flammable and explosive hazardous materials, the words "No Open Flame" (large red reflective font) should be painted in the center above the color bands on both sides of the tank, also in bold font with a minimum height of 250mm. Purpose of warning labels: They alert drivers in advance to drive carefully and pay attention to yielding.
