HAZMAT Transportation
HAZMAT transportation can be extremely dangerous for truck drivers which is why it typically pays at a higher rate.
To enforce regulations and promote the safety of HAZMAT transportation, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) conducts over 154,000 annual roadside inspections, with an estimated 35,000 DOT HAZMAT violations reported.
That’s nearly 23 percent of inspections resulting in a violation!
