Why do the drive-up ATM's have a braille keypad?

Answer 1

you know, ive always asked myself this question...if you are blind...how can you drive to the drive up ATM? i dont know but its a great question...mel

Answer 2

I've thought about it many times!! It doesn't make sense for it to be for the blind passenger unless they get out of the car, walk around to the ATM machine, enter their code (as if they know what questions are being asked of them without the driver reading the screen to them), finish their transaction, walk around to the passenger side of the car, and get back in. It seems they would be riding with a trustworthy person who can do their banking for them. The only thing I can think of is to make sure they aren't excluded.

Answer 3

Because they manufacture only one kind of ATM and they just put it in different "boxes" so it can fit the different needs. It would be much more expensive to have separate production lines for each kind of ATM. It also cheaper to produce one kind of keypad and not many different kinds. Your question should be why they have so many ATMs with touch screens without hearing aid

Answer 4

Cuz blind people still know how to walk to the atm..I hope you thought of this yourself, cuz there are 2 blind men in my area that go to the atm, via walking there alone.

Answer 5

For people who go there who what to get some money that might be blind.
