Imagine for a second that you’re in one of those double lane drive thrus that eventually converge at the window.

(Excuse the confusing numbering)
Let’s say that:
- Car 3 was the first car at the menu, followed by car 1 at the adjacent menu
- Car 3 finishes their order and pulls up to the window
- Car 2 pulls up to the menu where car 3 was and they finish ordering just a moment before car 1 finishes
Who should be next to pull up to the window? Does car 2 pause and allow for car 1 to finish so that the lanes at the window alternate? Or does car 2 pull up as soon as there order is finished?
-
I always thought they scheduled these so the cars arrive at the right order to the window.
-
Unless they specifically tell you to wait for some reason you should go when you've finished ordering.

I’m constantly in the car 2 situation and when I do pull up, they always confuse me for car 1.

M is sound

So start going to the other one. Problem solved.
-
Which car is your sister in?
-
Whoever is the fastest
But in general short turn -> long turn

You don’t feel any tension with car 1 when you do that?
-
Are you afraid they're going to ram you in the side in retaliation?
-
No of course not lol. I just want to be sure I don’t look like a jerk when I do that.

I order a ice water real quick to beat the other car, then get to the pay window and order more food :success
-
twin lane drive throughs are micro terrorism and should not be tolerated, send in the marines and drone strikes etc
-
they have cameras
-
Just go full mad max and ram the other car if they get in the way.
-
There is no need for either car to pause while the other finishes. Car 1 and car 2 dp car 3 and finish at the same time

For some reason this reminds me of one time I went through a drive through early in the morning before work and forgot to stop to order. (I was tired and probably a little high, I was in my early 20s). There were a couple cars ahead of me and I didn’t realize until I got to the window that I hadn’t ordered. The cashier said “That will be $9.50,” obviously thinking I was the person in the car behind me.
Well, me being who I was in my early 20s, I just handed them my card instead of explaining my fuck up, hoping I would want whatever the poor bastard behind me had ordered. I drove away contemplating the ensuing confusion I had caused. Turns out, Starbucks has pretty solid sausage sandwiches, the mocha was terrible though.
