During this time, The news that Shandong truck driver Xiao Wang had a dispute with merchants in the Baishazhou large market began to transport corn brushed the screen on the Internet, which attracted everyone's attention. Hubei Jingshi also reported on this matter continuously: the driver transported corn to the Baishazhou big market, and wanted to settle the freight but there was a dispute! The reporter's investigation of the baishazhou large market freight dispute has a result, the truck brother said: "don't network violence wuhan" In this dispute, one of the contradictions between the two sides is the "industry rules" of "selling first, then paying freight". So, does this kind of "industry rule" also exist in Jinan, Shandong? At 10:00 a.m., the fruit wholesale market of Jinan Dikou Group was a busy scene, and many of the vehicles were foreign license plates.
Mr. Zhang, who has been transporting fruits for more than ten years, said that after the goods are sold, it is an unwritten rule in the cold chain transportation industry to settle the freight and leave.
The reporter also found that due to the short shelf life of many fresh fruits, the storage needs to control the temperature, and the merchant also lacks storage space with refrigeration function. In addition, moving goods up and down is likely to damage the quality of fresh food, so merchants often choose to sell goods directly on the transport truck.
Many merchants and drivers also reflect that for long-term cooperative trust and carriers, they only need to verbally agree on the pressure time and related transportation costs each time. For orders published and received from third-party platforms, the relevant agreements are concluded.
However, the reporter also saw in the agreement issued by the third-party platform that the above did not require the cost of pressing the car, but only stipulated that "the carrier should agree and confirm the total amount of freight in advance and the specific arrangements for the way of payment." ”
Is the so-called market "industry" unfair? How to protect the rights and interests of drivers? In response to these problems, the reporter also consulted a lawyer. The lawyer argues that the "rule of trade" does not have a mandatory effect, and if the parties agree to follow this rule, it can bind both parties. The lawyer suggested that first of all, the two parties should sign a contract, and try to make the rights and obligations of both parties clear in the contract. If the agreement is indeed unclear, it can be resolved in accordance with the provisions of the law.
