Two story fire stations are required to either have elevators or cooking, bathroom and sleeping facilities on the ground floor to comply with ADA.

On the braille keypads at drive through ATMs, I believe that's done simply because they use the same keypads for the drive through and walk up ATMs. I don't know of any fast food restaurants that have a braille menu at the drive through. According to some articles I've read, very few blind people can read braille anymore.

Most likely, this lawsuit is being filed to force the manufacturer to make it an audible reading device where the user can plug in ear phones and have the book read to him or her.

They use the same keypad, whether the ATM is in a drive-through or walk-up location.

Most of the seeming incongruities which have become a staple of stand-up comedy have a reasonable explanation.
