Goods of an inflammable, explosive or dangerous nature, if not properly marked, or if shipped without the knowledge or consent of the carrier, may be landed, destroyed, jettisoned or rendered innocuous at any time before discharge. Such goods, even when shipped with the carrier’s knowledge and consent, may be dealt with in this way without liability to the carrier, should they become dangerous.
Where the Hague- Visby Rules apply, what rights does the carrier have regarding dangerous goods shipped?
