In the context of bailment relationships, the restaurant is most likely___________.A. not liable because it was providing a gratuitous service for which it has no responsibility.B. not liable because the car was the restaurant's responsibility only until it was parked in its parking basement.C. liable as a bailee unless it can show that the valet acted with reasonable care.D. liable as a bailor because it did not fulfill its duty of care and duty to act reasonably.

Respuesta :

The correct answer is C: Liable as a bailee unless it can show that the valet acted with reasonable care.

Further Explanation:

Josh gave up his car keys to the Valet who was working for the restaurant. Josh had an assumption that the car would be taken care of since the restaurant provided the service to the guests. Once the keys were handed off, the restaurant took a responsibility for the cars unless otherwise stated previously.

The restaurant will have to pay for the car or reimburse Josh for the price of the car that he still owes. Since the keys were left in the car, it was valet who did not exercise reasonable care.
