The number they’d need for gasoline is 1203, one of the few i have memorized. If you ever see a number on a truck, you can look it up on a hazmat number lookup site and it’ll tell you what it’s hauling. Usually it’s gas, diesel, or propane, but sometimes it’s something more fun
Edit: i saw a truck with the number 1824 on it, looked it up, and it’s a Sodium Hydroxide solution
When transporting dangerous goods, they must be properly placarded with regulation placards.
I still remember how much they use the word placard/placardable in the WHMIS training. Would be a fun drinking game if you survived the alcohol poisoning.

Hydrofluoric acid - some guy
Couldn’t they just add the name directly?

Its probably easier to write/print a number on a triangle when the name of the hazardous material is 129 letters long
