incorrect ADR signage

#1 Post by Space_Night » 27 Aug 2018 18:44

On AI trucks, and probably quick jobs too, signage on the trailers for ADR is using the American "Hazmat" signs as opposed to the European ADR signs and is lacking a "UN Number"
probably doesn't need to be fixed yet but may be worth addressing across the ADR trailers

It doesn't meet US requirements either. The UN number must be displayed on the sides, front and rear, either on a separate orange placard or (if this is not feasible or practical) on the hazardous material diamond.

Note that the image you used shows a UK placard, which is different to the UN standard. UK (and Australia, NZ and I think Malaysia) use a different placard to the rest of the world - it includes the emergency action plan for the load (the 2-3 numbers and letters e.g. 3YE, 2X, 4WE etc).

I've only ever seen the UN number on the diamond, but I also always see the UN Number on the diamond in the US

SCS has a LOT of work to do to make ADR even remotely realistic in ETS2. I saw them mentioning ADR plating in relation to owned trailers, so I have high hopes that they have something in the planning.

Out of curiosity, where is the trailer you used as an example of correct markings from? I have never seen a marking like that before. The only letter used as classification number (the one above the UN number) in the universal ADR code is X, which shows that the substance reacts with water. 3YE has to be some national specific marking.


In universal ADR, this substance, ethanol and gasoline mix, should be marked with 33 above the line, and 3475 below the line.

Edit: Nevermind, had I just opened my eyes, I would have seen that natvander already wrote where this was from :oops: .

A quick run down on the Hazchem Emergency Action Code.

So a chemical incident with a code 4WE requires a dry agent to combat any fires, requires FE suits, may be violently explosive and evacuations should be made in the surrounding area.

We then get more details based on the UN number as to how far the evacuation radius should be, methods of containment, treatment of victims etc.

So, I'm confused; is this a bug or not?
(I never had an opportunity to notice these signs, as with my bad vision, they just look like odd-colored blobs)

I'll post it. It's not correct for either continent, but whether they feel it's worth the effort to fix it is up to them. It will require a fair bit of work to get the UN numbers etc lined up with the correct chemical.

As a filthy casual, I had no idea the ADR signage was wrong, let alone how wrong it was. Now that I do, it's going to bother me no end. I hope they fix it.

in this place, goes several numbers each number has its meanings, type 33/1203 it can carry alcohol, diesel and gasoline all together, more if it is only alcohol 33/1170.

anyone who knows the codes already knows what the trailer is carrying
