keep an awl in the car... poke the speaker .

or, get some 3.5mm male ends and stick it into the headphone port for the bild folks. does it screw the blind/visually impaired from getting gas? sure..but it's an unfortunate side effect to saving all our ears. I wouldn't mind if I was blind, I'd just ask the attendant for assistance in pumping.

Is there a statistically significant population of blind people pumping gas? If you struggle to pump gas unassisted, I'm honestly not sure how you would safely operate a vehicle.

If you're legally blind you cannot get a drivers license. And it doesn't take much to be legally blind.

I dunno, machines have visual impairment functions like the audio jack which is why I said what I did

getting gas doesn't necessarily mean they are driving. could be for lawn mower, or they are paying/pumping but someone else is driving.
