(1)
Where the fault of the person suffering the damage contributes to the occurrence or extent of legally relevant damage, reparation is to be reduced according to the degree of such fault.
(2)
However, no regard is to be had to:
- (a)
an insubstantial fault of the person suffering the damage;
- (b)
fault or accountability whose contribution to the causation of the damage is insubstantial;
- (c)
the injured person's want of care contributing to that person's personal injury caused by a motor vehicle in a traffic accident, unless that want of care constitutes profound failure to take such care as is manifestly required in the circumstances.
(3)
Paragraphs (1) and (2) apply correspondingly where the fault of a person for whom the person suffering the damage is responsible within the scope of VI. — 3:201 (Accountability for damage caused by employees and representatives) contributes to the occurrence or extent of the damage.
(4)
Compensation is to be reduced likewise if and in so far as any other source of danger for which the person suffering the damage is responsible under Chapter 3 (Accountability) contributes to the occurrence or extent of the damage.
