BURKE, Va. -- A woman was seriously injured this morning after an accident at a McDonald's in the Burke section of Fairfax County.
The accident happened just before 9:30 a.m., at the McDonald's at the corner of Burke Lake and Braddock roads and authorities said the woman's injuries are considered life-threatening.
According to police, a woman was paying for her food in the drive through when she dropped her money. She opened the car door and bent down to grab the money, but the car kept moving and her head got caught between the vehicle door and a pole.
No other cars were involved.
so this must have happened because the woman left her car in drive and didn't consider that when you take your foot off the brake an automatic transmission vehicle (which pretty much all new suvs are) creeps forward.

and the annoying thing is that she'll most likely succeed
I once fell asleep under the balls in the ball pen, police were searching the area, finally woke up and had to wait for my mom to come back and pick me up.
Funniest thing though.

I assume you're leaving it to the reader to infer that you are making a reference to the coffee incident that happened involving mcdonalds not so long ago. The case was totally blown out of proportion. http://lawandhelp.com/q298-2.htm
you see.. the verdict wasn't so awful afterall.. later on mcdonalds apealed and it was reduced to 500,000 punitive damages or something.. THis case the lady has no legal leg to stand on, what is she going to say, mcdonalds made her car move? she was acting stupidly when she stuck her fscking head out of a vehicle in operation.. mcdonalds had nothing to with it
