Summary/Abstract: This paper gives some consideration to criminal liability with regard to crimes of abstract exposure to danger. The aim of this discussion is an attempt at justifying a potential restriction on criminal responsibility for this type of crimes by application of a lack of danger to the legal good. The consideration concentrates on a relation between the lack of danger and the legal norm as well as legitimacy of criminal law, a definition of the abstract danger exposure and a legally protected subject with regard to legal interpretation rules.
