I was the lead car in a four car pileup, and avoided hitting the car in front of me because I had left enough space, so yes. No fault for me!
And @asdadsas , leaving some space means that if you decide “screw this, there are other restaurants” you can simply pull out of line and leave.
And, just to bring this back to the point I made way at the beginning of this conversation, blaming any congestion related to this drive thru on the actions of individual drivers trying to be safe is eerily similar to blaming our environmental problems on individual consumers instead of the businesses producing and profiting from all the garbage.
Screw that. Even if it were causing congestion, which it isn’t in this case, blaming individual drivers instead of the business that is profiting by commandeering public infrastructure is kind of crummy.
Kind of like, “oh, this for profit entity using our public spaces to the detriment of society, at no charge, wouldn’t be a problem if only these customers would behave appropriately!”
When the snot is less congested in my nose that means more congestion.
Like guns, and racism, and fascism, and… /s
I’ve only had Whataburger once. Good burger with gooey cheddar cheese and lots of jalapenos. A++, would eat again.
Perhaps someone can add “proper spacing in car lineups” to the “Things that will cause an argument on BoingBoing” thread? Or can I do that?
Well it’s certainly disgusting. That much is accurate. My best friend loves those things, but I’m pretty sure it’s mostly because they’re super cheap.
They are truly awful.
Yet with its mix of crunchiness from the fried shell, greasiness from the ground beef and cheese, and umami from the metric ton of salty seasoning and hot sauce I improbably find it to be an incredibly satisfying guilty pleasure.
Most of the big gaps I saw were for driveways, parking, and streets. But there’s also an epidemic of ‘creepy’ drivers, mostly seen at stop lights. They stop a full car length behind the car in front of them and slowly creep up in little bits at a time while waiting for the light to change. It’s nuts.
