Couldn't this LPT get you a ticket? I thought you legally had to have your headlights on at night in most, if not all, states.

You aren't driving down the road. I doubt a cop is going to pull you out of a drive-through to write you a ticket. Just remember to turn them back on when exiting the drive-through.

Nope. He'll wait until you're moving up then get you for driving with your headlights off. You do you, but I'll keep my headlights on. It's not worth a ticket to me.

The cops must really be assholes where you live if they will give you a ticket for being kind to others.

Breaking a law just because you think it's being kind to others doesn't negate the fact you broke a law. Your entire argument is illogical.

I don’t think it’s illegal if you’re sitting in a drive-thru literally going nowhere for a few minutes.

I think it’s one thing if you forget to turn them back on before entering the public road again. Then yeah, I could see a ticket.

We may need to double check the state laws here just to verify and clarify. In my head, if you’re sitting in line at a business establishment where it’s not a public place, so the rules don’t apply until you enter public space. Wouldn’t businesses be considered private property?

Is the car driving itself when it goes from the order spot ahead one spot, then another, and another, until it reaches the window to get the food? Because if it is, then you may have a case.
