McDonald's drive-thru warning to customers over error that could land £1,000 fine

McDonald's has created an app that makes it all the more easier for customers to order their food at a drive-thru.

However, motorists are being warned that, despite being on private land in a McDonald's drive-thru, they should still be careful about ordering food on their phone. If a driver is found to be using their phone while in the queue for McDonald's they could actually end up receiving a maximum fine of £1,000 and six points on their licence.

This is because they could be breaching driving laws around using a handset while driving. Therefore, using the app to make ordering food quicker could actually end up being a very expensive mistake.
