Which statement is true about HIN and PAL?

Which statement is true about HIN and PAL?

• A. It is located on the ZIP code label.
• B. The HIN is located on the PAL and is used by PAS to identify both the Package Car location and the location of the package inside the car.
• C. It has no relation to PAS.
• D. It identifies the driver's shift.

Answer: (B)

The statement reflects how HIN and PAL work together in the PAS tracking flow. The HIN is printed on the PAL, and PAS uses that HIN to identify not only which Package Car (vehicle) the item is in, but also the exact location of the package inside the car. This dual identification lets the system track the item's position from loading through transit and into delivery, improving accuracy and efficiency. The ZIP code label isn’t where the HIN is placed, and the HIN’s role is connected to PAS rather than any driver shift information.
