Drive Thru miscalculation

I saw this on Facebook this morning, apparently someone decided to try to navigate a Tim Horton's drive thru in Colbourn Ontario Canada this morning in a Class A with a Toad and did not make it.

When I saw it I just lost all words... there is really nothing to say. Hopefully this is the right forum to post it to as I did not see a Duh what was I Thinking forum. Anyone who thinks us Canadians are smart clearly has not been in a Tim Horton's drive thru.

    I have only done a Duh what was I thinking once (knock on wood). A Tim Horton's near Quebec City with a 21' trailer (not drive thru). It looked like it had a big lot in the back and looked like it looped around the other side. Well it had a big lot in the back, not big enough to turn around in though and did not loop around. I had to back out onto a busy street. Luckily (or unluckily) there was another trailer (around 30') who also fell into the same trap. We ended up helping each other back out.

    In 11 years I only chose to go down the wrong road in my A around 4 times.

    I feel for the owner in that picture because it ain't fun getting yourself out of 'situations'.

    Pretty stupid move. Hopefully they figured things out before there was any damage. At minimum the Toad would have to be disconnected and the MH backed out...
