Use service=drive-through with highway=service to indicate that a highway is for drive-through service where customers can visit a business without leaving their cars.

In the United States, there are three common amenities which may be associated with drive-throughs: amenity=pharmacy, amenity=bank, amenity=fast_food. Other amenities that may have drive-throughs include amenity=library, amenity=atm, and shop=alcohol. Quite common in Italy is a drive_through lane or service lane at gasoline stations where an attendant fills up the car, payment at the driver side window at a significant mark-up per litre, 15-20 Euro cents is common i.e. amenity=fuel,

Usage

Use with

Drive-throughs are typically oneway=yes.

A drive-through can be mapped going through a car wash (building=retail amenity=car_wash); the indoor portion should be tagged tunnel=building_passage.

If a drive-through passes under an awning or a roof with a wall on only one side, tunnel=building_passage should not be used. Instead, use covered=yes.

If you know places with this tag, verify if it could be tagged with another tag.
Automated edits are strongly discouraged unless you really know what you are doing!
