We’re moving high-energy lithium-ion batteries on roads every day—but most of these shipments have little to no clear warning for first responders. When something goes wrong, that lack of information can have serious consequences.

In this video, I sit down with Chris Pfaff from https://www.hazmatandrescue.com to break down the gap in current hazmat regulations, why existing labeling doesn’t go far enough, and what firefighters are really up against on these incidents.

We also discuss the need for a high energy battery hazmat placard and introduce the concept of a proposed Class 10 designation for lithium-ion battery shipments—especially for damaged, defective, or end-of-life batteries.

This is about giving responders the information they need before they step into a dangerous situation.
