Somewhat
racist term for an interesting car game. At a
red light, any one of the
occupants may shout "
Chinese Fire Drill!" At this point, everyone in the car must get out of the car, run around to the opposite side, and get back in (including the driver). Hilarious
hijinx ensue when the driver forgets to put the car in
park. On rare occasions everyone gets locked outside of a running car (this in fact happened on an episode of
Full House).
What this has to do with fire drills in China, I don't know.
