ADG Dangerous Goods Placards Australia

Australia regulates dangerous goods by road under the ADG Code. As with other systems, the placards are diamond-shaped and built around the nine hazard classes, so visual recognition practice carries over directly from CDL-style study. Local terminology and some rules differ, which is where the official materials come in.

This hub is for visual ADG placard practice. It is an independent study aid, not affiliated with any Australian regulator, and it does not guarantee passing. Always verify requirements against the official ADG Code and your training provider or employer.
