    Collisions on German Inland Waterways<\/h2>

    For safe manning within Germany\u2019s domestic waters, such as rivers, canals, and lakes, careful attention to the special legal regulations is a must for any boating\/yacht enthusiast. These include the Inland Waterways Ordinance (Binnenschifffahrtsstra\u00dfen-Ordnung<\/em>, BinSchStrO) and the Collision Prevention Regulations (Kollisionsverh\u00fctungsregeln<\/em>, KVR), which is based on the 1972 International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGs).<\/p>

    But despite our best efforts, as well as increasing traffic on our waterways, collisions are at times inevitable. Shipping accidents carry several dire consequences, which may include personnel injuries, vessel damage, loss of cargo, environmental and infrastructural damage, and of course severe financial burdens. Therefore it is crucial to have a legal expert to \u201cbatten down the hatches\u201d (prepare in case of trouble).<\/p>

    If you have incurred damage from a collision within Germany\u2019s inland waterways, our legal team is prepared to answer any questions or litigate on your behalf.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
