I realize that company policies prohibit employees of some drive-through chains from dealing with customers not in/on a motor vehicle, but this policy is based on a flawed system: employee perceptions. You can walk through a Las Vegas drive-through if you can make it seem as though you are in a car. This may take some creativity, and possibly some friends.
You know, I've seen some guys do that with 2 car doors. The server genuinely didn't seem to notice, and it was funny watching them try and hold the doors steady while winding down the window....
My original thoughts about cardboard are not nearly so amusing.
I did this way back in high school after a long night of playing some geeky role-playing game, all of us went in search of food at three in the morning and found a Del Taco on Lincoln and Washington that was open all night, but only the drive through window was open. So we went to the window and tried to order, but the guy there told us of the policy, so we all left, went around the block, and then the four of us got into two-by-two formation and crouched as if we were seated and walked in unison into the parking lot, "drove" up to the order window, and then "drove" up to the open window and proceeded to order all while mimicking a car using the power of improv. We mimed the seats and the glove compartment and the change holder that used to be the ash-tray. It was pretty great. The worker was so amused that he let us have tacos.

I tried to do this in Indianapolis, but couldn't get the person running the menu to realize that I was there at all.
Many of them have weight sensors, to discourage exactly this.
Well that's just an engineering challenge.
This does not work in Las Vegas.
