Accessibility

Last updated 7 October 2026

This site aims to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA. This page records what has actually been checked and what is still open, rather than claiming blanket conformance.

What has been done

• Contrast was measured, not eyeballed. Every rendered text element was swept programmatically and checked against its real composited background at its real size and weight, using the 4.5 to 1 and 3.0 to 1 thresholds as applicable.
• The opening shot cannot trap you. The home page opens on a short silent film of the truck at dusk. The page is scrollable from the first paint, nothing is locked, and no control waits on the film. If the video fails to load or autoplay is blocked, the hero simply stays on the photograph it was already showing, which is the same frame the film ends on.
• Reduced motion is honoured. Turning on "reduce motion" in your operating system replaces the film with that still photograph, stops the hero from pinning, removes every animation, and turns off smooth scrolling.
• Phones never load the film. On a narrow screen the page shows the framed still instead, so there is no large download and no motion.
• Keyboard. Every link and control is reachable by keyboard in a logical order, focus is always visible, and a skip link is the first thing in the tab order.
• Structure. One h1 per page, headings in order, landmark elements, and a language attribute on the document.
• Images. Every photograph has alt text describing what is actually in the frame. The film is decorative, carries no information that is not also in the text, has no audio track, and is hidden from assistive technology.
• Zoom and reflow. The layout reflows to a single column and remains usable at 320px wide and at 200 percent zoom without horizontal scrolling.

Known limitations

• Ordering happens off site. Online ordering runs through Best Food Trucks, a separate site with its own accessibility position. We cannot make guarantees about it. If ordering online is difficult for you, the truck takes orders by phone.
• Maps are a link, not an embed. Following the map link takes you to Google Maps, whose controls and contrast are set by Google. The full address is given as plain text beside it, so no information is available only through the map.
• The name is set as an image. The painted wordmark at the top of the page is a picture of the truck's own lettering, carrying the alt text "Taqueria Chihuahua". It is a logotype, which WCAG exempts from the contrast rules, but it will not reflow or recolour the way live text does.
• No assistive technology audit yet. The checks above are automated sweeps and manual keyboard testing. This site has not yet been tested end to end with a screen reader by someone who uses one daily. That is a real gap and it is listed here rather than papered over.

If something does not work for you

Tell us and we will fix it. Call 720-600-9569, message the truck on Facebook, or come by 137 Main St in Longmont. If a page is blocking you, describing the page and what happened is enough, and you do not need to identify the technology you use.
