Strict liability

Liability for a hazardous operation or special source of danger even without personal fault.

In brief

Strict liability exists only where a special statute provides for it. It differs from ordinary fault-based liability.

Typical statutory regimes concern the operation of certain vehicles or installations. Their requirements depend on the relevant special statute.

General orientation only, not legal advice on an individual case.
