Strange question but I was watching a video of some Americans going through a drive through and when it came time to pay, it looked like they handed the worker their card to pay.

I’m in Canada and they give us the machine and we can either tap (the popular method) or put in our chip and pin. I definitely wouldn’t feel right handing my card off. Please help clarify my confusion.
