Any hazardous materials would have the paperwork that the driver has to sign before driving though.

How do you think intermodal shipping works? They repack the containers everytime it changes hands?

There’s plenty of cases where the driver doesn’t specifically need to know what they’re hauling, it’s mostly non of their business actually.

Knowing there's hazardous materials on board, and knowing they've been loaded/secured safely are two different things.

Again, not always the case; but of the ~15 different warehouses I've worked in, about 2/3 of them had the driver either loading the truck themselves or directly supervising the loading and giving directions of where/how they want it loaded.

Shipping containers are a little different; typically loaded and sealed with serialised one-time use seals at the warehouse, without driver involvement. But box trucks and flatbeds going directly to customer(s) are more often than not over seen by the driver that's doing the final deliveries. Particularly when the driver is offloading at each destination.

At least in my direct experience, in my region. Different places, different standards and practices.
