Section II states shipments are acceptable to which locations?

Section II states shipments are acceptable to which locations?

• A. Acceptable to all locations
• B. Acceptable to most locations
• C. Acceptable to dangerous goods locations
• D. Not acceptable anywhere

Answer: (B)

The question tests where shipments of batteries are allowed to go under Section II. With proper packaging, labeling, and documentation, battery shipments can be delivered to most destinations, so the correct idea is that deliveries are acceptable to most locations. There are restrictions at some destinations or for certain handling requirements, so not every place is open to shipments of this type. Saying they’re acceptable to all locations ignores those limits, and saying they’re only acceptable to dangerous goods locations would misstate the broader allowance, while saying they’re not acceptable anywhere would be completely inaccurate.
