27 hours to get it there.

Trying to see how many cell towers in Mexico my phone can switch to without telling me. Also, how many drug cartel members I can spot.

Delivered to El Paso this morning from Virginia, then ran up the street (same street) to pick up one going over to Calexico. Waiting to get loaded now.

I concur. Especially the applicability. That's the one thing that is critical to the understanding of the definitions and regulations with each section and subsection of the regs. If not understood in the proper applicability context, misunderstandings and misinterpretations can easily occur...

OK. But in the CFR, there is only one definition of HAZMAT. It's in several places, but it's identical in all of them. Next time you are perusing the regs and stumble upon it, you might want to consider giving it some attention.

Phil, the problem with your hypothetical begins with the last sentence in Question 1, which is reinforced by your misunderstanding of the DOT's definition of HAZMAT. Class 9 was a bad example on my part to use regarding placarding, as Class 9 materials do not require placarding. I was thinking...

I think so, but I'm on a load and can't do it until very late tonight or tomorrow.

The shipping papers do not determine whether or not something is HAZMAT. Shipping papers have their own set of rules are are filled out based on what the shipment is. First thing you have to know is the definition of HAZMAT. The DOT defines it as: The way that materials are designated as...

If the BOL has any item flagged as HAZMAT, and it's correctly flagged, then it's HAZMAT and requires placards. If it doesn't require placards, then it should not be flagged as HAZMAT on the BOL. What makes something HAZMAT is not whether or not it's flagged on the BOL, but rather if it is on the...

The answer to question 2 is yes. If you haul HAZMAT, then it's HAZMAT, regardless of the weight. In order for something to be classified as HAZMAT, it must be listed in the Table of Hazardous Materials, AND, not OR, but AND, be in a quantity which requires placarding. Some materials require...

HAZMAT is hazardous material which requires placarding. If it doesn't require placarding, it's not HAZMAT. If it does, then it is. It's very simple. In order to haul HAZMAT you must have a CDL with a HAZMAT endorsement. The vehicle you drive is irrelevant.

You keep saying it's invalid, but you won't say why. If you can't do that, then you're right, no point in continuing. Just keep in mind that religion requires following certain rules, both of worship and of behavior. Those rules don't change based on morality, but rather create a morality of its...

I'm not attempting to validate it at all, since it stands on its own. I'm simply attempting to give you the opportunity to invalidate it.

100% wrong? Puhleze. I don't know about Terry or anyone from Safety, but I assure you it is a federal regulation. Well, that's true, but there is a limit to when you are required to log. For example, let's say you drive a CMV and then go on vacation for 6 months. At what point can you stop...

No, not by the DOT. The entire cargo van is considered the truck cab, so anything that cannot be hauled in the cab of a truck cannot be hauled in a cargo van.

When you are hauling HAZMAT, you are a Commercial Motor vehicle, so yes, you have to log and scale and all the other things. Logging previous 7 days in a cargo van when you are NOT a CMV, is really pretty easy. If you are not operating a CMV in interstate commerce, you are not subject to...

Of course it is. Duh. Without the second, the first isn't valid, any more than without the first the second would be valid. They are two sentences which together convey a single idea or thought. They are not separate and mutually exclusive ideas which can be taken out of context, which you are...

It's a stereotype, in part, but it's not much of a leap. Like most stereotypes, it's based in truth. The second sentence is precisely as stereotypical, and for the same reason. But it's the two together, in context, which makes the overall statement. Morals are internal to the individual...

Religion is doing what you are told regardless of what is right. Morality is is doing what is right regardless of what you are told. You can't legislate morality any more than you can legislate against it.
