Authority vehicles also will not display copy that might be contrary to the best interests of the transit system, or which might result in public criticism of the advertising industry, transit advertising, and/or the Authority.

​

4. The Advertising Contractor will be expected to comply with generally-accepted industry principles with respect to good taste, as well as all applicable laws, including but not limited to truth in advertising, copyrights, trademarks, and all other intellectual property rights.

6. Any advertising contractor entering into an agreement to display interior or exterior advertising on Authority vehicles will be required to indemnify and hold harmless the Authority, its respective Directors, officers, agents and employees against any and all suits, claims or actions arising out of any injury to persons or property, including intellectual property rights, such as infringement of copyright or trademark, that may occur, or may be alleged to have occurred, arising from or related to the performance of the agreement.
