[The] TDG [Transportation of Dangerous Goods] Regulations requires dangerous goods safety marks to be displayed on a means of containment containing dangerous goods in transport. A dangerous goods safety mark can be a label, placard, orange panel, sign, mark, letter, word, number or abbreviation, or any combination of these things. Dangerous goods safety marks are displayed on a means of containment to identify dangerous goods and to show the nature of the danger they pose. [They] give a quick identification of dangerous goods in the event of an emergency situation such as a release of dangerous goods from a means of containment. 3, record 1, English, - dangerous%20goods%20safety%20mark
