In addition to that, in my experience from a municipal background, we have a lot of communities where the major truck haul is right through a small community, and our local fire departments a lot of times are not informed of the type of loads going through. I'm not saying every load should be reported, but our fire department should have the ability to prepare or have a plan to deal with a situation that may arise.
It's not a daily thing. I don't think it would be onerous on the industry to say they are carrying various types of chemicals that could be flammable or poisonous, or whatever it may be.
Shouldn't that be the responsibility of the industry? A lot of our fire departments are volunteer, and they should be prepared to deal with any situation that may arise.
