Why do they call them stands if you sit in them? Why do you park in a driveway, but drive on a parkway? Why is a package delivered by a car called a shipment but when it's delivered by a ship is called cargo? Why is it called a television set if you only get one? Why do people sing Take Me out to the Ballgame when they are already there?

I have often wondered that myself and have decide that it is standard manufacturing practices to put Braille on all machines so all can be used for any location. But that is just a thought. I hope there is not a bunch of blind people driving out there. What a scary thought.

It's because banks don't like getting sued by blind people. Just a week ago, a group of blind people sued a large chain store, T**G**, for having a website that's too hard to read. Apparently, blind folks use a speech software that reads out loud every texts on web pages. And this store's website had too many links that the speech software could not recognize and read. So the store got sued. All public stores must be accessible by people of different handicaps. I am just saying. It's the law.

I agree with the person who said that someone else is doing the driving. Also, just because it is a drive-up ATM doesn't mean that you can't walk up to the ATM and use it.

Mass production...they make the comparable set of keypads for kiosks, vestibules or lobby ATMs as they do forcontinual by ATMs. however, perchance they at the instant are not braille dots...perchance the final guy who used the ATM left those there (eww)...mutually as we are on the area, why do no longer you p.c.. your self a winner.

Because it is more cost effective to only have to manufacture one set of keys for all of a manufacturer's ATM.

because the blind person may get driving to the ATM by someone with sight.
