DriveThru in RHD??

[_integra_typeR_]

Isn't it a little bit difficult to go thru drivethru with RHD cars in canada?? Out of no where thought of it... lol

[camby]

Hahah yeah... just like how Peter's drive in has 2 drive thru's but one is for the passenger side.

[wildrice]

and when you're leaving parkades, do you get out of the car, stick the ticket in and then walk back into the car?

[Goblin]

You must only eat there then

Go thru passenger side.. they will be like... wtf!

Ive always wanted to go backwards thru a drive thru....

[mx73someday]

Bring a friend....or buy a small RHD like an Alto Works or a Beat, something you can reach over with.

[rc2002]

Just drive in backwards. Problem solved!

[_integra_typeR_]

lol! yea the parking ticket thing is a problem too i guess you could drive backwards haha but you might run into the gate arm thing

[lastprodigy]

would be fun

[CryoCarnage]

haha i used to drive in backwards for fun in my van. it was awesome. Everyone seemed to get a good laugh haha.

[theken]

i reached over at mcdonalds its a tough reach but can be done

[talon31]

i used to go through drive thrus almost every day in the summer in my fairlady and never had a problem. its a long reach but easily done.

I'm right handed will this pose a problem when I reach across?

I'm afraid if I use my weaker left hand I might spill my drink.

Should I just go in and tell people I drive a RHD and not risk making a fool of myself in the drive-through?

[GQBalla]

don't eat fast food its bad for your health.

OR

get some exercise and walk to get your mc d's!!!

[BlueFrenzy]

Heh ... never thought of this for you RHD people. Drive in reverse .. ha ha! I'd just park and go in. Ehhh ... as for the parkade .. that's a headache, no?

[Lo)2enz0]

we did a couple of these in my friends car. lol god this one lady saw us at the bank machine and flipped out because of it.

Haha, so buying a RHD car makes you get into better shape....
RHD is good for your health ;)

Seriously though, I'd just drive through all of them in reverse. Parkades and everything.... Although I guess it would be awkward when you get out onto the road?... Or getting into the parkade at busy times. You would have to go past it, then everybody behind you would just go in instead of letting you back up....
Hmm.

Yea, specially during those blind left hand turns where you get smoked head on :thumbsup:

[theken]

^ have you YET TO SEE THIS HAPPEN?? dont be an ignorant asshole, i cant wait for a LHD to get smoked head on so all the RHD guys can be assholes too

[Zero102]

True... and passing on a highway during the daytime would suck too...
Maybe RHD is bad for your health....
Wait, better yet.
RHD is good for your health, but bad for your life ;)

[calgarys13]

:D :D :D Just make sure if you do that that you bring in some pictures of your car so you can show them as you're telling them it's RHD. Actually, better yet, take in pictures of a car much nicer than yours and tell everyone you drive that.

Reversing through drive-thrus sometimes works, but some drive-thrus are just not intended to go backwards in. The way they're laid out makes it physically impossible without going back and forth a couple times. (i.e. Sunridge McDonalds)

first hand experience??:dunno:

Usually i can reach no problem, pulling up close enough to the window without scratching the car is the main concern.

That only works at very few places.
