this is good because sometimes you go through the atm and you have to pass your card to the driver and even if he/she is your friend what if you don't trust them and you have to tell them your pin # which is awkward. |

Hey, just turn your car around and put it in reverse. then drive backwards through :-) |

I've only been to a drive-thru ATM once.
Could someone explain to me why they have braille on the keypads? |
|
|
[Lemon]: I figure it's because they use the same stock keypads as some non-drive-up devices. |
|
|
[Lemon]: It's actually federal law, on the grounds that blind people might well be passengers in a car driven by a sighted person. The ATM industry never really fought hard against it, for the reason centauri gave. |
|
|
Keep in mind that there are many different forms
of blindness, many of which still leave some amount of eyesight. (But it's *very* blurry, or just in a very
small spot.) |
|
|
Also, bear in mind there are voice-prompting ATMs that provide a recorded message for each step of the transaction ("Please enter your personal identification number," "Please enter amount,") and a detailed account of how to perform every transaction on a braille plaque alongside. |

Here's a croissant for using a drive-through ATM under the influence. |
|
|
[juole]: Just have the driver stop the car just before the ATM and then get out of the car to use it. |

One learns all sorts on here. I've never seen a drive-through ATM, didn't know they existed. |
|
|
And I usually sit behind the chauffeur anyway, not beside him. (As if...) |

Bun, for giving me the idea of a passenger-side McDonald's counter. |
