On a 1/4 of a tank? I dont think you'll have a problem doing it.

1/4 of a tank should be good for about 50 - 70 miles.

Go to petrol station, fill up then walk in and say
"Bugger, I've forgotten my wallet"
If they are anything like round here the will take your fingerprints, reg no, name etc and give you 24hrs to come back and pay before informing police
(Or if they not like round here they will throw your ass in prison
)
