I...uh...actually know a guy here in IN that did the same thing at McD

Never got the attention of po-po, but it could have, since he was just a tad bit buzzed at the time

many drive-thrus have signs that say that they will not serve people on bicycles, skateboards, on foot, scooters, etc...

No bikees , no walkees because they haven't got a chance against a car, anybody that's observed the way people drive will understand.

TB always did. He should have gone to Wendy’s. They might have served him, even on a bike.

I call BS on this one.

There are many, many fast food places in "diverse" neighborhoods which close the inside dining area at sundown and all customers must use the drive-up window.

This is for employee safety.

Lucky him. I knew a guy here in ND who got a DUI on a bicycle...

Absolutely. Wendy's knows the customer is always right!

apparently, there is greater liability for those not in vehicles while using the drive through... and i also read that bicycles, wheelchairs, scooters, pedestrians do not weigh enough to set off the sensor to let the employees know there is a customer out there... not sure if either of these reasons is true...
