A person may not transport, carry, or convey dynamite, gunpowder, nitroglycerine, naphtha, benzine, gasoline, crude or refined petroleum, or similar explosive burning fluid, or similar dangerous article on a vessel or vehicle operating in the state, or on the waters of the state, when the vessel or vehicle is carrying passengers for hire. Refined petroleum may be carried on a vessel or vehicle if it is put in good iron-bound casks, barrels, or boxes, in metallic cans, or vessels carefully packed in boxes and if it will not ignite at a temperature of less than 110 degrees Fahrenheit. Each cask, barrel, or box shall be plainly marked upon its head with the name of the manufacturer, the name of the article, and the temperature at which it will ignite. The empty containers in which the refined oil is carried may be returned to the place of shipment by the vessel or vehicle which transported it.
