Trade between different partners is frequent and generates many relationships that fall under transport law. As this is a field in which high values are involved and the risks are so great, it is essential that the carrier takes the safest measures to protect himself, starting from the way the contract or transport order is drawn up, the level of insurance cover, the way the activity and driving times are organised, to the regulation of relations with drivers employed or collaborating with the carrier.
