I never thought of that. I guess should in case a blind person get the urge to drive to the bank, they dont feel left out?

The keypads are probably standard, meaning that they're the same for all ATMs whether they're drive-up or walk-up. So it might seem silly, but it's even sillier to make 2 different types of keypads, one with braille and one without.
