摘要

由於我國在民國88年修正之海商法對貨物運送人之義務及責任已作相當幅度之修正，對海上運送契約當事人間之權利義務有重大影響。本文探討及分析：
1．我國海商法下貨物運送人之基本義務之內容及其適切性，包括：提供具有適航能力船舶、照料貨物及不作無正當理由偏航之義務。
2．我國海商法下運送人強制責任之內容，包括：法定免責事由之內容、不得以特約免責之限制、單位責任限制、對危險品等特殊運送之責任、侵權行為之訴及受僱人，代理人及獨立契約人之責任、訴訟時效之規定。
3．比較我國海商法修正之內容與海牙威士比規則之相關條文的異同，以分析海商法之修正內容，對運送人義務及責任之衝擊。

In view of its wide scope of revision in respect of carriage of goods by sea, the ROC Maritime Law will have great impact on the rights and responsibilities of the parties to the contract of carriage. This article discusses the following issues:
1. The basic responsibilities of the cargo carrier under the ROC Maritime Law, including the provision of a seaworthy ship, the duty of care, without unreasonably deviaing from the agreed route or method of performance. It also analyzes the suitability of the relevant provisions in the ROC Maritime Law.
2. The statutory liabilities under the ROC Maritime Law, including the statutory exemptions, limitation to freedom of contract, limitation of liability, special liability as to the carriage of dangerous goods, action in tort against the carrier's servants, agents and independent contractors, and limitation of time.
3. The comparison of relevant provisions in the ROC Maritime Law and the Hague-Visby Rules, in order to analyze the impact of the discrepancies between them.
