What Are Dangerous Goods Placards for Trucks?
Dangerous goods placards are safety signage displayed on trucks, trailers, and tankers carrying hazardous substances. These placards indicate the class of dangerous goods being transported and may include UN numbers or “Mixed Load” identification where applicable.
They are legally required when transporting hazardous materials above exempt quantities and must be clearly visible from all sides of the vehicle.
Purpose of Dangerous Goods Placards
The primary purpose of placards includes:
- Warning other road users of hazardous cargo
- Assisting emergency responders in identifying risks quickly
- Ensuring compliance with transport regulations
- Reducing risk during accidents, loading, and unloading
Proper placarding is a legal requirement under South African dangerous goods transport regulations and aligned with SANS 10231/10232 standards.
