This article examines the actions of the Paraná Military Police (PMPR) in traffic accidents involving the road transport of hazardous materials, such as chemical, flammable, explosive, and toxic substances. The analysis is based on current operational protocols and applicable environmental and traffic legislation, highlighting the PMPR's strategic role as a first responder in high-risk situations. The study discusses immediate containment actions, area isolation, life preservation, and environmental damage minimization, as well as coordination with specialized agencies such as the Fire Department, Civil Defense, and the Water and Land Institute (IAT). The study also proposes measures to improve personnel technical qualifications, standardize procedures, and invest in infrastructure, with the aim of strengthening the PMPR's institutional capacity to respond to emergencies involving hazardous materials and consolidate its role as a key player in environmental disaster prevention and public safety.
