1 If the goods are lost or destroyed, the carrier must compensate their full value unless he can prove that the loss or destruction resulted from the nature of the goods or through the fault of the consignor or the consignee or occurred as a result of instructions given by either or of circumstances which could not have been prevented even by the diligence of a prudent carrier.
2 The consignor is deemed to be at fault if he fails to inform the carrier of any especially valuable freight goods.
3 Agreements stipulating an interest in excess of the full value of the goods or an amount of compensation lower than their full value are reserved.
Le voiturier, en exerçant les droits qui dérivent pour lui des soins à donner à la marchandise, sauvegarde de son mieux les intérêts du propriétaire; en cas de faute, il est passible de dommages-intérêts.
