The dangerous goods provisions are the result of close cooperation with the Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) and they also apply to carriage by road and inland waterways.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Twice a year, OTIF and the UNECE organise an RID\/ADR\/ADN Joint Meeting which ensures simple multimodal transport for dangerous goods by rail, road and inland waterways.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">For obvious safety reasons, RID has to be able to develop rapidly. Appendix C and its annex (RID) are revised every two years using the simplified procedure, in parallel with the revision of the UN Model Regulations, which contains recommendations for all modes of transport concerning the carriage of dangerous goods.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The working groups, the RID\/ADR\/ADN Joint Meeting and the RID Committee of Experts work to maintain regulations that reflect as closely as possible the reality of dangerous goods transport.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><img loading=\"lazy\"
