We revisited the influence of electron-electron scattering on the resistivity of a two-dimensional system with linear spectrum. In conventional systems with parabolic spectrum, where Umklapp scattering is either prohibited or ineffective due to small Fermi surface, particle-particle scattering does not contribute to conductivity because it does not change the total momentum. However, within the framework of Boltzmann kinetic model, we demonstrate that electron-electron scattering in Dirac systems can significantly contribute to conductivity, producing distinct temperature-dependent corrections: a T\textsuperscript{4} behavior at low temperatures and T\textsuperscript{2} dependence at moderate temperatures. While the predicted T\textsuperscript{4} scaling is not observed experimentally – likely suppressed by dominant weak localization effects – the T\textsuperscript{2} scaling is clearly confirmed in our measurements. Specifically, temperature-dependent resistivity data from gapless single-valley HgTe quantum well exhibit T\textsuperscript{2} corrections, which align well with theoretical predictions. Thus, we challenge the paradigm that T\textsuperscript{2} term in resistivity is absent in single-band 2D metals.
