“The Dangers of Issuing a Delivery Order
Can You Afford A $23 Million Jury Verdict?
Dangerous Road Ahead.”
Delivery orders beyond the commercial zone are
subject to Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Administration regulations. Like freight
brokers, CBP brokers are required to exercise
reasonable care when selecting a motor carrier
and could be held responsible as an “employer”
if the motor carrier kills a motorist or loses
the cargo.
Each importer who is shipping over-weight
containers should consult their lawyers and
preferably research these cases:
Carmack Amendment, Carriage of Goods by Sea Act
and the Warsaw Convention or any others. You got
to be sure if
something happens that some hove will not be
responsible for it.
Knowing USA lawyers and law it is tough to be
protected from something that is illegal.
We here many statements where you have to do
this ship over-weight or you will be priced out
of competition and so on.
Please understand we understand your position
but also please understand ours that we can not
afford to be issuing those
Deliver Orders from our company to the truckers
as if something happens we will be drag into the
law suites.
Thank you or your support and business but
please we are urging you to check above and to
do accordingly compiling with the law.
