so true.
my brother is blind, and he convinced his friend to let him drive. His friend would tell him to slow down, stop, etc. He didn't drive for too long, he just wanted to experience it again. I know this has absolutely nothing to do with your question, just wanted to share.

Good question. You find that out, ask 'em why there's a braille menu at the drive-thru, too, and who tells the blind folks it's there, since the info is printed on a sign stuck to the payhere window?!

Good question, I wondered why the street signs are not Braille, too. Makes as much sense to me. How about a Braille map? :)

Machines are made on an assembly line. No one knows whether the machine will be in a standalong kiosk or in another type of walkup device. It would be impractical to stock machines with and without braille pads.
The Federal laws mandate equal access to all persons regardless of infirmities/handicaps. Bureaucratic rules aren't designed to make sense either.

the keys used for the keypads are mass produced, so it is more cost efficient to make braille only keypads than two different types

At my girl's school they have the sign "Amenties" which means toilets and underneath the word there's braille as well.

In case a blind person wants to do his banking at the window instead of going into the bank. He doesn't have to be driving the car to go to the drive-thru.

Haha I know what you mean, but some blind people walk up to it because it's easier for them since it's outside, and they don't have to find the door and all that stuff. I saw a guy with a guide dog doing that a couple weeks ago at the drive-up Wachovia near me.
