Class 7: up to 10 packages, TI sum ≤ 3, no subsidiary hazard → no 8.2.1 driver training, but employer-certified awareness training.

Driver training under 8.2.1 need not be applied if the transport unit carries no more than 10 radioactive packages, the transport index sum is at most 3 and there is no subsidiary hazard. Drivers must then get training on the radioactive-material rules suited to their duties, giving awareness of the radiation hazards, confirmed by a certificate from their employer. See also 8.2.3.
