No one said life is easy but some people play this game on a harder level than others. In this case, we particularly have visually impaired people in mind. Good thing there are always some good samaritans jumping in to help others. You could say this is how the world evolves but oh my, would you be wrong with that. This time, all their efforts were in vain as they seemingly didn't get the point of how any of that actually works for the visually impaired. Just take a look at these hilarious attempts to aid the blind!

Printing Dots Is Not Actual Braille
You could have used hot glue and created glue bubbles on top of the printed Braille
Braille Under The Glass
Braille On Bumpy Surface
Braille Sign High Up On The Swings
You Probably Can't See The Lights Tough
You may not be able to read the words, but some blind people can still see the bright green and red glow. So this doesn't really belong here.
Braille Sign Under The Glass
Well, if done well, the sign would be disgusting since they would read it before washing their hands.

That's Not Really How Braille Works
If the letters are raised than you can feel the shape of them. putting the word braille is stupid though

Pointless Braille
Only The Button 3 Is With Braille
Serious question: would people who can read braille be able to read 'our' number too? I mean: this numbers are protruding from the buttons. And the numbers are larger then the braille signs. I would think these ciphers to be decipherable by touch alone for blind people. (?)

The English Caasp (A Standardized Test) Practice Test Has Braille As An Option
Actually, this test works with Braille computer interface devices, and when Braille is selected by the sighted person that is setting up the tests (like they do for all students), the test software will send proper signals to the device, as well as make other accommodations to make the test accessible to the blind, including sending raised illustrations to the device, and eliminating any questions that may not translate to a blind tester. It's actually very helpful.
A lot of these are because people do not realize how poorly worded many ADA laws are, it is why the drive through at my bank has braile, it is so they are compliant with the law. The laws are poorly written, and since there are shady lawfirms that go around suing everyone based on the most technical aspects of the ADA laws, so it is just easier to do these things.
It actually makes sense for a drive through atm to be available for the vision impaired.... So when they have someone (like a taxi or Uber driver) take them there, they can operate it on their own and don't have to trust a stranger to do their banking.
Load More Replies...It is mainly the fear to get sued, what is common in the US... same as writing "can be hot" on a cup of coffee or not to put a hamster in the microwave... idiocy at its finest...
Please, look up Liebeck vs McDonlad's. Writing 'may be hot' is their way of covering their asses.
Load More Replies...This reminds me of a post not to long ago, that one was about wheel chair ramps, it was just as bad, or worse as the majority of ramps were a complete failure, and after seeing the ramps, I was stunned, now this for the blind, leaves me speechless, the laws need to be changed for both A.S.A.P.
