What happens here

The critical advantage of the new Boss Trailers is their compartmentalized design, which allows each fuel cell to be legally considered separate and under 119 gallons (actual 110 gallons per cell). This eliminates the need for a Hazardous Material Endorsement (HAZMAT) to tow the trailer, making it accessible to any driver with a standard license. The speaker highlights his own frustration with HAZMAT requirements for his previous trailer and how this new design solves that problem for his company, allowing any of his crew members to haul it.
