SUBJECT:  State Chemical Transport Exam 

Several drivers have voiced concerns about the Missouri State Chemical Transport Exam. True, the exam is designed to be a serious test of your knowledge, but Carol Browning at the State Chemical Regulation Board assures me that it is fair and straightforward. In other words, if you have a solid grasp on the state’s regulations, you should pass the test. 

I know some are concerned that those who fail the test will be immediately dismissed. This is not the case. According to the State Board, drivers who fail the test are placed on probation. They have four opportunities to pass before the state can revoke their licenses.

You will not be left to prepare for the exam alone. I want to review our plan to prepare drivers for the exam, so we won’t have any needless anxiety: 

1. We will purchase a copy of the State Chemical Transport Handbook for each driver.

 2. We will provide a two-week course on state regulations for all drivers. You will be paid for time spent on the course. 

3.  We will conduct optional practice tests in the weeks leading up to the exam. 

We are doing everything we can to help drivers pass the exam with flying colors. Let’s look at it as an opportunity to brush-up on our safe handling procedures.
