Figure 11-1 A hazardous materials emergency can involve countless substances and occur in many situations. Warning placards on a truck should immediately alert you to the possible need of a “hazmat” team. Bryan E. Bledsoe, Robert S. Porter, and Richard A.

Figure 11-4 Vehicles carrying hazardous materials are required to display placards indicating the nature of their contents. Even if you have studied these placards earlier in your EMS career, you should regularly review the symbols, color codes, and hazard class numbers so that you can identify dangerous materials.
