...I've never heard this one before. Apparently a lady in a McDonald's drive-thru ran over her own legs (http://www.phoenixvillenews.com/WebApp/appmanager/JRC/Daily?_nfpb=true&_pageLabel=pg_article&r21.pgpath=%2FPVN%2FNews&r21.content=%2FPVN%2FNews%2FContentTab_Feature_715 762). The distance from the Blazer to the restaurant wall in the drive-thru lane was approximately 53 inches, as measured by police.
My guess is that with that large a distance, she opened the door to get the food because her can't-drive-the-SUV-ass was too far from the window. She forgot to put it in park and the Blazer rolled forward.

Oooooookkk......

Wow. Stupidity never ceases to amaze me. I hope that big mac combo was worth getting your legs crushed for.

Yep, 53 inches is 4.5 feet. I'm with Hae-Yu. She must have opened the door for something, either to grab her food and/or she might have dropped something out the window and forgot to put the vehicle in park.

4.5 ft does seem kind of excessive but I think we've ALL had to open our doors at the drive-thru for one reason or another at some point in our lives.

I think she got out to get her food and when the car started to move she probably tried to stop it but the weight of the vehicle knocked her off balance and she fell with her legs in a position underneath the vehicle.

Freak accident for sure....I just like to give myself reasons not to eat fast food. It truly is horrible stuff. Some of it tastes good, much of it doesnt. And it has little to no nutritional value, high in sodium, high in sugars high in fat and high in calories. Mass production doesnt help the sanitary value either.

Yes, I'm a snob :biggrin:

Never understood why people don't just roll down the window? :doubt:

Yes, I realize the window could have been broken, but I see people all the time with new cars, or at least new enough to not have a broken window, and they open the door.
