For the catering or delivery services your Restaurant will provide, we anticipate that your employees will use their personal vehicles to provide these services from your Restaurant. We have the right to require you to have temporary signage placed on each delivery vehicle. We expect that all delivery vehicles will be kept clean, in good working order and be properly insured. You must have each person provide those services to comply with all laws, regulations, and rules of the road and to use due care and caution operating and maintaining the motor vehicles. Except as described in this paragraph, we do not have any standards or exercise control over any motor vehicle that you use. You must also offer delivery through third-party delivery services like Grubhub, Uber Eats, and DoorDash.
