ADR Regulations

Everything you need on dangerous goods transport (ADR), in plain language and linked to every guide in the cluster.

Moving dangerous goods leaves no room for improvisation: a wrong plate or an expired licence is enough to have the truck immobilised. This cluster brings together what you actually need to run ADR with confidence: what the European Agreement says, how the vehicle is marked (orange plates, Kemler code and UN number), which licence and training are required, and what the inspector will ask for at the roadside.

Whether you drive or manage the fleet, here are the step-by-step guides that keep you out of trouble: from classifying the substances to the duties of the dangerous goods safety adviser (DGSA). Explained plainly and updated for 2026.

One tip: don't leave it until the check stops you. Keep the licence valid, review the signage before loading, and keep the transport document and written instructions to hand. With that sorted, an ADR load runs like any other — only with the paperwork bulletproof.
