The term "common carrier" is a common law term and is seldom used in Continental Europe because it has no exact equivalent in civil-law systems. In Continental Europe, the functional equivalent of a common carrier is referred to as a "public carrier" or simply as a "carrier". However, "public carrier" in Continental Europe is different from "public carrier" in British English in which it is a synonym for "contract carrier."
