# §172.701. Federal-State relationship.


This subpart and the parts referenced in [§ 172.700(c)](/cfr/49/172.700.md?p=c) prescribe minimum training requirements for the transportation of hazardous materials. For motor vehicle drivers, however, a State may impose more stringent training requirements only if those requirements—

- (a) Do not conflict with the training requirements in this subpart and in [part 177](/cfr/49/part177.md) of this subchapter; and
- (b) **Apply only to drivers domiciled in that State.**
