Gangster Peter here, when you do a drive-by, you murder them by shooting them while in your vehicle. This is an effective tactic because you can kill them, and flee before the cops arrive. Gangster Peter out
a tactic used by gangs to start and end shootouts quickly, the gang members will find a decently fast, disposable car, load up with the boys and "drive by" their target and open fire, and then speed off before anyone can even retaliate

Drive-by means murdering someone by shooting them from a moving vehicle.
Thank you, My native language isn't English, so there are many words that I don't understand.
It's a very unfortunate thing that we have to have a specific phrase for a drive-by shooting.

Don't worry. It wasn't entirely clear to me what it meant, and I'm a native speaker.

Jesus, really? So blatantly obvious
Everyone on the internet is american, didncha know?
Yup. We get the real internet, foreigners get that imaginary .uk & .ca type stuff (tho foreigners get all the cool piracy sites - .tf, anyone?).

It’s a subreddit for explaining jokes. You are just being a Jack wagon.
