I don’t know much about safety but i’m like 90% sure they need one of those flammable signs with the numbers.
The number they'd need for gasoline is 1203, one of the few i have memorized. If you ever see a number on a truck, you can look it up on a hazmat number lookup site and it'll tell you what it's hauling. Usually it's gas, diesel, or propane, but sometimes it's something more fun
Couldn't they just add the name directly?
When transporting dangerous goods, they must be properly placarded with regulation placards.
I still remember how much they use the word placard/placardable in the WHMIS training. Would be a fun drinking game if you survived the alcohol poisoning.
Its probably easier to write/print a number on a triangle when the name of the hazardous material is 129 letters long
What's more fun than propane? - Hank Hill (probably)
