Jimmy John’s​ Delivered On I-35W After Car Stalls

Sandwich company Jimmy John’s boasts "freaky fast" deliveries, and one Minnesota man stuck on the highway decided to put the motto to the test. The driver, whose vehicle stalled and blocked a lane of traffic July 2 on busy Interstate 35W in the Twin Cities, apparently couldn’t wait to eat.

A Jimmy John’s delivery vehicle arrived just as a trooper and the driver moved the vehicle out of the way into a nearby parking lot, according to the Minnesota State Patrol (MSP).

The driver stuck his head out the window and said the food was for him. He was also cited for having a suspended license.

"Jimmy John’s really is freaky fast," MSP said on Facebook. "But we don’t suggest eating and driving."(For more local news, click here to sign up for real-time news alerts and newsletters from Minnesota Patch, click here to find your local Minnesota Patch.
