[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree that the Wildwood parking lot is crazy.  I once got yelled at by some lady in a fur coat parking her enormous white SUV — I was waiting to pull into a spot with my blinker on but she thought she could just duck in.

I will admit I have sometimes pull up to that lane and stopped at dinner time to let my kid (public school!) grab a takeout order from fish taco.  I try to be attentive though and if there’s a line I’ll loop around.  There is often no parking available so it’s hard to park to pick up a take out order — they have a couple pull up spots at fish taco and chopt for the pick ups but they are usually blocked!  I hate that strip mall so much but I love fish taco, the pizza place and the sushi place.

You are all the problem, regardless of your car type or choice of schooling. Your excuse is not better than private school suv mom at starbucks. [/quote]

There is nothing wrong with using a Fire Lane to drop someone else off to grab a food order.

You aren't allowed to wait in your car in a fire lane. You have drop off and drive away. That’s not what is happening here.[/quote]

I think I’m the PP you are calling not very bright.  (I will admit I do hate driving—it is not my strong suit and miss the decades I lived in cities with no car!).  Is it really not okay to pull in behind the designated pull in pick up spots that chopt and fish taco have marked off and watch behind me to see if the traffic is backing up for a couple minutes while my kid picks up the order from the shelf?  I only do this maybe 3x a year.  It’s not actually functional to order take out from these restaurants otherwise and I do like to patronize the local restaurants there on the rare occasions when I get take out.   I’m not even clear that this is a “fire lane” — maybe I’m talking about the wrong thing.  I’m talking about pulling up by the curve behind the designated take out pickup spot.  For some reason fish taco and chopt have that but the pizza place doesn’t, nor does the sushi place.  
I’m not sure what the social norms are here.  My usual rule is just to try to be alert and if it looks like I’m creating problems for other people, I’ll move.
