Course overview
On a daily basis, as you’re commuting to and from work, going to the grocery store, or taking your kids to ball practice, how many semi-trucks do you see on the road? Probably quite a few—and many of them could be carrying hazardous materials. We often don’t consider this fact as we’re going about our daily lives, because more often than not the transportation of hazardous materials is done safely and does not impact us. However, when it comes to the transportation of hazardous materials, if something goes wrong, the situation can get ugly fast.
