Why do drive up ATMs have braille on the keys?

Well for a technical answer.... Even tho braile isn't needed for a drive up ATM... Cause I hope to god blind folks aren't driving lol... Its more cost efficient to produce a single set of buttons for all atms

Heh, well, you still get to walk up to them when the bank is closed, but still, somebody that's blind can't escape needing somebody else to trust for that sort of thing. Be curious to know if there actually is a functional and independent blind person (beyond a walking dog) that can do their own banking though...

The short answer is that ADA probably isn't specific enough to exempt them, and they probably shouldn't be.  If it's an ATM they've used before with a little trusted assistance, they could have the routine memorized, making it possible for them to use the ATM from the back seat of a taxi or friends car.

Necro, other than telling me to shut-the-fuck up at times, this here, makes great sense; back seat of a taxi/car.

You opened your mind!

Ehh, shut your fuckin' piehole!

I would imagine the keys are also standardize to keep production costs down.  Even though your at a drive through ATM, those same keys probably fit a floor model for that same manufacturer.

If you have ever been to chicago, you will realize blind people drive everyday!

TGG, driven on the east coast, much?

Chicago, colder there, though. Slicker roads, certain times of year, though.

Da bears.

There is. Lots of them. Blind people (at least the ones I know) tend to have a highly developed capacity for memorizing and recalling things.

Sure, they're not going to be driving anywhere, but as long as they're dropped off in a familiar location, they employ a number of means to navigate... ranging from the classic walking stick to counting their steps or other items (how many streets have been crossed? how many steps from the corner to the entrance? etc..).  As for banking, most of that is done online I'd imagine.  There are accessibility applications, such as JAWS (screen reader) which not only read the text but also allow them to navigate by keystroke.  Writing checks is achieved by a plastic overlay with holes where the payee, $ amount, and signature goes.  Even managing bills within the wallet is an affair of keeping bills in sequence and knowing how many of each are present and/or dog-earing the last of a denomination.

Of course, many tasks are easier with a friend or assistant along to help.  Doesn't make them any less functional or independent.  ( ;

WRONG THREAD MOFO!

Let me help you out...

This is how I imagine most of this board functions, nowadays. Professional, yet, not;

[tggodfrey]

Nah, Never been East really.  Drove to Maryland to pick up a car once but thats it.  I get the impression if I do, I might want to plan on walking huh?    lol
