What Causes a Max Car?
It is possible, during peak times, for the number of MAX CARS to be exceeded if your store’s drive-thru can actually hold more cars than what is set in the Timer. The Timer will compensate for this by removing the oldest time from the line and readjusting the averages. It is important that the MAX CARS number matches the number of vehicles your drive-thru can physically hold. A MAX CAR can also be caused by a car pulling out of line during peak periods.
