QUESTION 174Not studied yet

A person entitled to dispose of the goods has issued an authenticated delivery change, but it cannot be carried out without harming the consignees of other consignments. What should you do?

CMR: conditions for carrying out instructionsCompared with sources

Answer

Through the carrier, immediately notify the person who issued the instruction of the obstacle and agree on the next lawful action. Do not carry out an unsuitable change on your own initiative.

Please note

This concerns the conditions in Article 12(5)–(6) of CMR; an instruction does not authorise breaches of safety or other legal requirements.

A simple explanation

Under CMR, a change must be possible when received, must not interfere with the carrier's normal operations and must not harm the senders or consignees of other consignments. For example, an authenticated request does not in itself justify disrupting delivery of goods intended for another consignee. If these conditions cannot be met, the carrier must immediately report this.

REMEMBER

An authenticated instruction must still be feasible.

Learning together and feedback

For an instructor and a small group: choose one C/CE freight transport topic in the Lithuania and EU context. Use your own devices, including a phone and a computer.

  1. 3 questions. In ‘Recall’ mode, first answer in your own words, then read the explanation and mark what needs more review.
  2. A lesson and a diagram. Discuss what they explain and which conditions matter.
  3. One scenario. Decide before revealing the solution. Explain the reasons for your chosen action.
  4. A few quiz questions. Read the explanation for each option. You can finish the quiz early; the remaining questions will be marked as unanswered.
  5. Discussion. Everyone names one useful point and one thing that needs correcting.

How can you share or suggest a correction?

You will find the question link and feedback field below this section. Lessons, diagrams and scenarios have their own ‘Copy link’ button. ‘Suggest a correction’ helps you prepare a note with the specific link and version label. Copy or download the text and pass it on for review.

Discuss: is it easy to find an answer and return to the question? Can you explain the reason and the limits of the rule's application? Which sentence is misleading? Flag any significant legal or safety uncertainty for checking before using the material.
