G'day,
I downloaded this brochure:
http://www.panynj.gov/bridges-tunnels/pdf/red-book.pdf
And found this:
Page 13
Class 2, Division 2.1 Placard Flammable Gases
PERMITTED
George Washington Bridge (Upper Level)
Bayonne Bridge
Goethals Bridge
Outerbridge Crossing
PROHIBITED ANY QUANTITY *
Holland Tunnel
Lincoln Tunnel
George Washington Bridge (Lower Level)
*Materials of Trade in this Division are allowed.
See the definition of Materials of Trade for
the quantity limitations.
Page 33
MATERIALS OF TRADE (MOTs) shall mean hazardous materials transported in
small quantities as part of a business and subject to less regulation under Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) 173.6 because of their lesser hazards.
Page 33
Hazardous Material shall also include any empty container which last contained
any flammable liquid, compressed flammable gas, poison gas, or any flammable
liquid, cut cement or tar, or flammable or non-flammable compressed gas.
Page 34
Division 2.1 or 2.2
DOES A CAMPER/RV MEET THE REQUIREMENTS FOR M.O.T
. Not over 100 kg (220 pounds) in a cylinder, or
. Not more than 70 gallon water capacity for a non-liquefied Division 2.2 material
with no subsidiary hazard in a permanently mounted tank manufactured to the
ASME Code.
I agree with JP this is well and truly confusing, HOWEVER, I interpret this to mean that an RV with up to 220
Pounds in the LPG tank is OK.
Regards,
Rob M.

These are Hazmat Transportation Regulation for commercial carriers. RVs are not commercial carriers thus the regulations do not apply.
