Read a random definition: Self-help

A quick definition of praestatio culpae levis:

Praestatio culpae levis is a fancy Latin term that means someone has to be careful and use common sense when doing something. It's like being a good driver and following the rules of the road. This phrase was used a long time ago to describe how much care someone should take when doing something. Nowadays, we use the terms "reasonable care" and "reasonable person" instead.

A more thorough explanation:

Term: Praestatio culpae levis
Definition: Praestatio culpae levis is a legal term that means an obligation to exercise a middle degree of diligence and care, which is the same level of care that an ordinary person would use. It is a forerunner of the modern terms "reasonable care" and "reasonable person".
Examples: A driver who is driving at the speed limit and paying attention to the road is using praestatio culpae levis. A doctor who follows standard medical procedures and protocols is also using praestatio culpae levis. These examples illustrate the concept of using the same level of care that an ordinary person would use in similar circumstances.
