It could be considered an idiom although I have never heard/read it. Where/when did you see/hear it?

I heard it in a movie,
and I was cierious to know it is an idiom or is said because the person was in the car.
thank you

It doesn't sound very natural to me.

Well, since they were in a car, and they, I assume, actually drove away, it would be a safe bet to assume that the phrase is literal.
