Bill would ban fingerprinting for driver's license

Associated Press - January 12, 2009 8:15 AM ET

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - State Sen. Randy Brogdon is sponsoring a bill to prohibit the state Department of Public Safety from requiring driver's license applicants to give their fingerprints.

The bill would prevent the state from collecting or keeping "any biometric data in connection with motor vehicle registration or operation or in connection with driver licensing."

Biometric data would include fingerprints, palm prints, voice data, iris recognition data, retinal scans and DNA.

It would also apply to Social Security numbers.
