Wow! You’ve really thought this through.
Now maybe you can explain to me why they put Braille touchpads on drive-up ATMs.

Section 4.34.4 of the ADA Accessibility Guidelines for Buildings and Facilities (Appendix to Part 1191, 36 CFR Chapter XI, issued pursuant to the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990) states "Instructions and all information for use [of an automated teller machine] shall be made accessible to and independently usable by persons with vision impairments."

There were no exceptions granted to ATM machines for use in drive-up configurations.

Nor should there have been. Blind folks, obviously, don't drive; they need someone else to drive them. Would you want to trust a cabbie with your PIN, and trust him to work the machine and withdraw $100 as you asked, rather than withdraw $200 and pocket half?

The ADA requires, generally, "reasonable accommodations." I find that accommodation reasonable.
