Breakdown or Accident Clause Samples

The breakdown-or-accident clause defines the parties' rights and responsibilities in the event that equipment, machinery, or vehicles essential to contract performance become inoperable due to mechanical failure or unforeseen accidents. Typically, this clause outlines procedures for notifying the other party, timelines for repair or replacement, and any temporary suspension of obligations while the issue is resolved. Its core function is to allocate risk and provide a clear process for handling disruptions caused by unexpected breakdowns, thereby minimizing disputes and ensuring continuity or fair adjustment of contractual duties.
