About
Building on concepts learned in earlier courses (torts, agency, statutory interpretation), this course will introduce law students to fundamental legal issues affecting the nation's transportation industry. Subjects addressed will include the regulatory history of transportation services in the United States, the legislative progression toward what is now a largely deregulated industry, and the national and international legal challenges affecting transportation provider's daily operations. Although the course will focus largely upon the motor carrier segment of the industry, issues affecting air, water, and rail carriers will be addressed as well.
