NEW YORK (AP) - Chicago drivers have a new way to pay for gasoline: with their fingertips.
Ten Shell gas stations in the Windy City are testing biometric systems that let consumers walk up to the pump, scan their fingertips on a device and fill up their vehicles. The systems, also installed at Shell convenience stores, are directly linked to customers' checking or credit-card accounts for payment.

No way will we agree to give our fingerprint to pump fuel.
Crooks will definitely remove your finger/hand to steal. Nothing wrong with a card attached to your key ring or one you can store in your wallet/pocket book.
