Frequently Asked Questions
Does third-party delivery remove the restaurant's auto exposure?
Not automatically. Contracts, employee delivery, hired and non-owned auto use, and the actual arrangement should be reviewed.
Why do drive-through controls matter?
Vehicle and pedestrian flow, signage, lighting, property layout, and incident procedures can affect premises and auto-related exposure.
Coverage descriptions are general. Eligibility, availability, limits, deductibles, valuation, exclusions, and policy terms vary by operation and insurance market. Actual policy documents control.
