Why do they put braille on drive-up ATM's?

Because it costs the company who makes the keypads the same amount as if they didn't put them on there. The same keypads are used in cash machines in grocery stores, malls, and other places blind people might use. So why not just make them all the same if they cost the same amount of money?

Not all atm's are drive up. But the machines are all the same.

It's cheaper for the manufacturer to make them all the same.

The same reason they put braille on the restroom doors in McDonald's!

The law makes them ...believe me if its not there, even at the drive in atm sombody would sue and win.

Possible reasons:
A blind man could walk up to the ATM
A blind man could be a passanger in a car
To keep from getting sued by a blind man

Some people walk up to the ATM. It's some non-discrimination thing.

Braille is a code that blind people use. There are a lot of blind people in our society, so comes as an essential for these people. This way, they can still use the ATM's without asking anyone for help.
