You have to consider all hints: einem Bankautomaten cannot be plural because ein is a strictly singular article. The -em at einem gives away it's dative case, and the -en on Bankautomaten agrees to that.

Because the word "an" in this usage requires a dative, and (Bank)automaten is a dative singular form (and also the dative plural form).

The preposition "an" can also be used with accusative, but not in this case because anhalten does not involve direction.

There's a group of nouns called n-stem, or weak nouns. These nouns take a weak "-en" ending in the genitive, dative and accusative singular forms. Der Automat belongs to this group.
Examples include:
Der Junge, des Jungen, dem Jungen, den Jungen
Der Kunde, des Kunden, dem Kunden, den Kunden
Der Bär, des Bären, dem Bären, den Bären
Der Mensch, des Menschen, dem Menschen, den Menschen
There is also a (very) small subgroup in which the singular genitive takes "-ens" as an ending:
Der Name, des Namens, dem Namen, den Namen
Das Herz, des Herzens, dem Herzen, das Herz *
Der Wille, des Willens, dem Willen, den Willen
Der Gedanke, des Gedankens, dem Gedanken, den Gedanken
* Note the accusative form for Herz
