试析交通事故责任中适用过失相抵的主体范围

An Analysis on the Application Subject of Negligence Counterbalance in Traffic Accident Liability

《中华人民共和国道路交通安全法》第76条确立了过失相抵规则,但规定过于原则,对于司法实践中过失相抵的运用缺乏具体明确的指导。为更好地维护交通事故中当事人的权利,交通法应明确过错责任下交通事故中适用过失相抵的主体范围和严格责任下交通事故中适用过失相抵的主体范围。

Article 76 of the Law of the P. R. C. on Road Transportation Safety has established the rule of negligence counterbalance, but its too principled, and is short of specific and definite guidance over employing negligence counterbalance in judicial practice. To better maintain the litigants＇rights in traffic accidents ,the traffic law should define the subject scope of employing negligence counterbalance under liability for fault as well as under the strict liability.
