It was more military focus than car focus. While in uniform the military isn't/wasn't supposed to run errands essentially, so they couldn't get out of their cars. McDonald's introduced the drive thru so that soldiers could grab a bite to eat without exiting their vehicles. Not that that is any better, just the reason that the first ones were even a thing.
Everyone else installing the things is definitely car-centric.
Damn, that's the worst unintended consequence since employer-provided healthcare.
Employer provided healthcare happened under the Nixon administration, so this happened before that in the 50s
Employer provided healthcare started as a benefit during WWII because it was a loophole around wage controls.

I worded it badly. While it's true that is when the process started, Nixon changed healthcare so that it could be for profit, which it wasn't prior to that, thereby ensuring that healthcare and employment would permanently be tied together
