Dangerous Goods by Road

V2

(1) Packages shall only be loaded on to EX/II or EX/III vehicles which satisfy the relevant
requirements of Part 9. The choice of vehicle depends on the quantity to be carried,
which is limited per transport unit in accordance with the provisions concerning loading
(see 7.5.5.2). Where a transport unit consists of an EX/II vehicle and an EX/III vehicle,
both carrying explosive substances or articles, the quantity limit of 7.5.5.2.1 applicable
for an EX/II transport unit applies for the entire transport unit.
(2) Trailers, except semi-trailers, which satisfy the requirements for EX/II or EX/III
vehicles may be drawn by motor vehicles which do not satisfy those requirements.
For carriage in containers, see also 7.1.3 to 7.1.6.
Where substances or articles of Class 1 in quantities requiring a transport unit made up
of EX/III vehicle(s) are being carried in containers to or from harbour areas, rail
terminals or airports of arrival or departure as part of a multimodal journey, a transport
unit made up of EX/II vehicle(s) may be used instead, provided that the containers
being carried comply with the appropriate requirements of the IMDG Code, the RID or
the ICAO Technical Instructions.
