Contributory fault of the consignor refers to circumstances in which the sender's own misconduct or omissions (e.g., incorrect or incomplete information, improper packaging, failure to comply with regulations) influence the risk, damage, or proper conduct of the transport. In such cases, liability or cost allocation may be partially attributed to the consignor.
