The center of gravity of a load

• should be kept as high as possible
• can make a vehicle more likely to roll over on curves
• remains the same, regardless of the load
• all of the above

The cladding in a tank

• eliminates liquid surge
• protects the tanker from corrosive cargo
• eliminates outage
• eliminates any need for both bulkheads

The amount of a liquid to load into a tank depends on

• legal weight limits
• the weight of the liquid
• the amount the liquid will expand in transit
• all of the above

The best way to maneuver through recurve is too slow to a safe speed before entering the curve, and then_____as you go through it

a. brake slightly.

b. coast.

c. accelerate slightly.

d. steer over the center line to "straighten" out the curve. 

Too much weight on the steering axle can cause heart steering

true

False

You require a Tank vehicle (N or X) endorsement when carrion liquid or liquid gas in a tank vehicle of 1000 gallons or more

True

False

What will liquid tango do to the handling of a vehicle

• stabilize it during acceleration
• stabilize it during extreme steering requirements
• stabilize it during braking
• it can move the vehicle in the same direction as the liquid moves

When your cargo tank has bulkheads, what difference in handling can you expect

• worse braking control than a smooth bore tank
• worse acceleration controlled than for a smooth bore tank
• there will be less front to back surge than for a smooth bore
• none, bulkheads have no effect on handling

When you unload the smaller tanks of a tanker with bulkheads, use your___changes

• Weight distribution
• Lane
• posted speed limit
• fuel level

You should inspect your vehicle

• before loading
• before driving
• before unloading
• all of the above

When loading a cargo tank with liquid, you must consider which of the following

• the amount of liquid will expand during transit
• the weight of the liquid
• legal weight limits
• all of the above

When you have a liquid load, banning the brakes will can

• Cause the vehicle to rock
• Increase the  surge factor
• Cause the brakes to heat up and possibly fail
• All of the above

When should a driver of a Tank vehicle which is loss it brakes use a truck escape route

• Never
• only when the tanker is empty
• only when the tanker is full
• always

Which of the following are important to inspect on a tank vehicle

• the tanks body (chill) for dents and leaks
• the position of the intake, discharge, and cut off valves
• Pipes, connections, and hoses of leaks (especially realm joints)
• all of the above

When hauling liquids in ball, outage requirements do not apply

• true
• false

Which is the most stable tanker shape

• elliptical
• double conical
• cylindrical
• tower

Which of these can cause a vehicle skid

• over steering
• over acceleration
• over braking
• all of the above

Which of these are correct when using a fire extinguisher

a. use an "A" topic extinguisher on fuel fires

b. stay up when of the fire

c. aim at the base of the fire

d. both a and B

Which of these statements about emergency steering and tankers is true

• a tanker is easier to counter steer than most vehicles
• when making a quick steering moment, do not apply the brakes
• you should counter steer faster and sharper than necessary to avoid the danger
• all of the above

Which of the following is important to remember in an emergency

• always come to a complete stop to avoid the danger
• heavy vehicles can almost always turn more quickly than they can stop
• leaving the road is always more dangerous than hitting another vehicle
• always turned to the right to avoid the danger

Which fires can you use water to put out

• tire fires
• fuel fires
• electrical fires
• fuel fires and electrical fires

You are driving a tank vehicle and must stop quickly to avoid a crash. You should

• never use the brakes to avoid a crash
• push the brake pedal as hard as you can and hold it there
• use light, steady pressure on the brake pedal
• use controlled or stab braking

Outage requirements for liquids varies depending upon quantity and

• quality
• center of gravity
• expansion rate when they get warm
• discharge belt size

When trying to avoid a crash: steer around the danger, never use the brakes

• true
• false

You should always leave room for expanding liquids when loading a cargo tank

• true
• false

A tanker with a smooth bore tank handles the same way as a tanker with tank bulkhead

• true
• false

You are driving a loaded tank vehicle and exiting a highway using an offramp that curves downhill you should

• travel at this posted speed limit on the offramp
• slow down to a safe speed before the turn
• slow down to a safe speed before the turn and accelerate to the posted speed during the term
• take the offramp in neutral and stab break is necessary to maintain a safe speed

You are driving a tank truck and the front wheels begin to skid. Which of these is most likely to occur

1. You will counter steer as necessary to maintain control
2. the liquid surge will straighten the trailer out
3. the liquid surge will straighten the tractor out
4. you will continue in a straight line and keep moving forward no matter how much you steer
