Unmanned aerial vehicles, or drones, one of the technological marvels of our age, are increasingly being used to tackle real problems for us. But they are also prompting some serious legal, financial and practical questions. For instance, they have been flown dangerously close to commercial aircraft, putting the safety of air travel at stake. Besides, rogue drone operators are invading sensitive airspace and private property. All of these are the result of a regulatory vacuum. Although the FAA has banned most commercial drone flights, people who fly drones for fun aren’t regulated. They don’t have to obtain licenses, register their aircraft or undergo training. However, the recent spate of risky incidents have prompted the FAA to adopt more stringent enforcement measures. As more and more drones will roll out of the factories, companies need to take more responsibility for educating their customers by adding warning labels, devising software fixes to limit where drones can fly and taking other steps.
