The driving is not their business. Can't you use this excuse to bypass that clause altogether? eg. a pizza restaurant that classifies its delivery drivers as contractors: "their business is making the pizza. delivery is not their business".

I mean it's that how contracting is supposed to work? If your core competency is in making the product expecting you to become experts on delivering it too is crazy.

Pizza restaurants contract out delivery to firms all of the time. Is that really different than contracting out to an individual?
