You can get drive through married in the US. It's literally a Mad Max society

I'm not doubting you, but that's certainly less common than the drive through ATM

In more than one way, and for any of the movies.

One of the culture shocks for me when I moved to the US.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago

Yes. Before there were ATMs (Yes, I'm old) there were drive-through tellers, and they were replaced with ATMs before there were walk-up ATMs. Then walk-ups were given extra terminals as walk traffic increased and drive-throughs were phased out, replaced with nearby short-term parking.

Here in the States, we 🩷💚🤎LOVE🤎💚🩷 our cars.

Why wouldn't there be one?

What suprises me is that there isn't a walk up ATM. Even in banks with multiple drive up ATMs there's always at least one designed for people.

He may not know that in the US drive up atms are common. In other parts of the world they aren’t. I’ve never seen one here in colombia as an example of a country that doesn’t have them. All the atms here are inside the bank to dissuade theft.

My closest branch removed theirs a couple months ago. Only drivethrough now.
