Rejected petition ENFORCE LINE OF SIGHT REGULATIONS ON DRONES TO STOP AMAZON AIR AND SIMILAR IDEAS

Replacing couriers with drones would put people out of a job. One person could not safely operate multiple drones, they could injure people on landing, fail and drop out of the sky and collide with birds or air traffic. They are noisy, invade peoples privacy and are likely to be stolen by criminals.

More details

They are unnecessary and I do not believe that the majority of the general public would want them.

The UK should not be a guinea pig for this experiment.
