Farmer Pete sold Oscar several bushels of heirloom tomatoes for $595. The contract provided that the shipper would send them via a common carrier using the most direct route. Oscar was going to sell the tomatoes in his grocery store. Farmer Peter gave the tomatoes to Fast Trucking Common Carrier Inc. and informed it to use Route 66, which was the quickest and direct route. While in transit, Fast Trucking needed to make a detour because the highway had been blocked because of an accident involving multiple cars. Fast Trucking did not anticipate this and had not refrigerated the tomatoes as it should have for the delivery. When Fast Trucking arrived at Oscar's grocery store, the tomatoes were very soft and ready to spoil When Sunny, Oscar's assistant, saw the tomatoes, he exclaimed, "Wow, these cherry tomatoes sure don't look well!" Fast Trucking informed Oscar that he would need to fill out a report for the damaged tomatoes. Which of the following is not an exception that Fast Trucking Common Carriers may raise to relieve itself of any liability? a. the inherent nature of the goods. b. an act of the shipper. c. the multiple car accident. d. an act of a public enemy.
