Class 6 HAZMAT includes which hazards?

• A. Poisonous, Poison Inhalation hazards and Infectious Substances
• B. Flammable hazards
• C. Corrosive hazards
• D. Radioactive hazards

Answer: (A)

Class 6 HAZMAT covers toxic substances and infectious substances. The focus is on materials that can cause poisoning, including those that pose a poison inhalation hazard (PIH) and infectious substances that can cause disease. That combination—Poisonous, Poison Inhalation hazards, and Infectious Substances—directly reflects what Class 6 is all about. Other hazards fall into different classes: flammable hazards are Class 3, corrosive hazards are Class 8, and radioactive hazards are Class 7. So the option listing the poisonous, inhalation toxic hazards, and infectious substances is the one that matches the scope of Class 6.
