Or all the people grabbing a few hits waiting in line in their cars.

Driving around with a sleeping kid in the car has been the majority of my drive thru usage in the past few years. My now three year old was a really bad sleeper, so there was lots of aimless driving around at all hours. Being able to just pull through and get a caffeinated beverage at 5 in the morning was much appreciated. There aren't many in my area, but I knew where all of them were.
Other than that, I'm with the people who prefer not to use them and then complain about not getting served when I go inside.

As a sales rep that does most of his eating on work days behind the wheel this bugs me because it actually will make my work day less efficient to some extent but since a forced diet change recently I haven't been stopping at drive thru's very often this year. I know that my town is working on a plan so that when the couple that exist apply for renovation permits they won't be approved to replace the drive thru, they already won't approve a new one for food or banks.

Drive throughs can suck my ass. Sitting there idly and idling (polluting) while I stroll in and get my food before you. And I get exercise.
DTs are big in Maryland. Fucking lazy fuckers.They think I do not know a buttload of crap about the Gospel, but I do.

When you witness a fucking drive thru soda shop (mormon ‘dirty sodas’) with a line of 15 cars backed out onto the street, blocking a lane....that is when you will embrace burning them all down.

I'm curious if the avg check at a drive thru is less, same, or more than for an in-store sale? I kinda think b/c you don't have all the fancy menu's on the wall and stuff at DT it might be less?

I love drive thru's. There is a lineup of cars 6 or 7 deep outside and I walk inside where there is no line. I get my food and walk out before the next two cars even get to order theirs.

Probably the same cities with not enough available parking nearby so folks will not even bother, causing reduced business and related tax revenues which will then be made up for by exorbitant parking tickets to those who think they can get away with running in real quick.

Wow, these cities must be killing it on their CO2 reduction plans to have gotten down to this almost pointless exercise in governance.
I mean, I am in a pretty progressive city with regards to climate change has reduction efforts and the thought of spending staff time on this is baffling.
And yeah, the walk in thing doesn't work here anymore.

Heh, I could take em or leave em. I don't drink the coffee from timmies, so I easily avoid that clusterfuck. The odd time I go to a fast food joint, more often than not for a DQ blizzard, if there is more than 2 vehicles in the line, I pull in and get my take-out. So it's about 50/50. And I shut the vehicle off while waiting for more than a blizzard. But if they weren't available it would not hinder my hedonism for fast food in the slightest.
