Is there anything you cannot do from your car these days? Maybe you'll get the answer after reading this article:

1. Drive in Churches

http://bp2.blogger.com/_7_gMFng3OpY/RdVys3DsVqI/AAAAAAAAAlc/dS2kjP6_EXs/s400/drive-in1b.JPG (http://www.time.com/time/photoessays/2006/drive_in_church)At the Daytona Drive in Church, in Florida, Christians don't even have to get out of the car. Reverend Larry G. Deitch delivers a sermon from a balcony to the church goers at the parking lot.

The minister delivers his message from a high balcony just below where the movie screen once hung.

However, this drive-thru service is not the only one in the world. The Reverend Erling H. Wold opened the early morning drive-in services of Emmanuel Lutheran Church (http://www.nohoelc.org/yourti11946.html) in North Hollywood, June 1965.

2. The prayer booth

In addition to free prayers, the booth also gives away free Bibles, bottled water and sometimes flowers".

3. Drive-thru weddings

4. Drive-thru strip club

http://bp0.blogger.com/_7_gMFng3OpY/RdZBUHDsWDI/AAAAAAAAAp8/p4SlBq1n1tI/s400/P1020044b.jpg (http://www.climaxredtop.com/ebay/index.php?imgdir=Outside)In Alexandria, Pennsylvania, Climax (http://www.climaxredtop.com/ebay/index.php?imgdir=Outside) "gentlemen's club" claimed to be the first, and apparently the only, drive-through strip club in the world. Patrons pulled up next to a tiny window so the drivers could watch through it at $5 per minute.

5. Drive-in Funeral

The body was displayed close to the window so relatives could give their last goodbye from the car. The Pensacola drive-thru Funeral home was finally closed, but there's another one in Chicago (http://www.uwsp.edu/geo/courses/geog100/CarMort.htm).
