Transportation of flammable dangerous goods in Hungary

Keywords: dangerous goods, transportation, flammable, accident, disaster management

Abstract

Nowadays the economic operators and the authorities concerned place particular emphasis on compliance with and control of the special rules for the transport of dangerous goods. Knowledge of the rules and regulations relating to flammable dangerous goods is essential for both actors, as a significant proportion of the dangerous goods transported are provided by such goods. In this article, we analyze the groups of flammable dangerous goods, the basic classification rules related to the transport of dangerous goods, and by analyzing international and domestic statistical data, we can see insight into the proportions of transport of flammable substances and the analysis of official control figures.
