First, the city should be ticketing every single vehicle that is parking in the road and blocking traffic. If I was a cop, I would just park myself right there and hand out easy tickets all day every day. Being in line for a drive through does not excuse blocking traffic.
But the bigger issue that people here are missing is that going into the store may not actually save you any time. Often when I’ve tried that at places like McDonalds, the drive through is far faster than waiting in the kitchen. Their whole operation is optimized for the drive through, and in-kitchen orders end up stuck in this weird ghetto backlog that they’ll get to when they feel like getting to it.
I don’t think those are actual roads; they look like the parking lot roads you find in various commercial complexes. They are technically considered private property, as such traffic laws don’t exactly apply the same way.
If you are in the appropriate lane for the turn you intend to make, and the car in front of you isn’t moving, I’m pretty sure the law doesn’t require you to pick a different destination or ram the car ahead of you. What the law should be is a different question, but cop you would just see a bunch of tickets thrown out in quick succession. I don’t know what that realistically means for the job, but it can’t be good.
There is a popular place near me where the line could be as long as the photo and they would get you through in a few minutes. Of course that involves having several people walking the cars getting orders and taking money. The window hands out the food as fast as the drivers can pull up. It’s insane but impressive.

genuinely every time I go inside a place, it’s faster than drive through
