I was pleasantly surprised last night when taking two
taxis in New York City. The monitor in
the back seat, normally just playing advertisements, says tap several times on
the screen to enable visually impaired mode.
When you do that, you are presented with a bunch of
options the most significant of which is hearing the fare. They tell you to tap
upper left, upper right and so forth to activate different functions. One of
those functions is location. It tells you what point of interest is nearby.
There are probably many other options. I have no idea how many companies have
this functionality but it was refreshing to experience access in a whole new
area of travel.
