Yes, I totally agree. The whisper quiet vans driving safely and unhurriedly up and down the street where my kids play are a much better solution. I hope that your plans to legislate the status quo into permanence are successful.
- CoastalCoder 4y agoI may have a stale understanding of the laws regarding drones in the U.S. But my understanding is they can basically hover around / over your property without your consent. That's very different from vans driving on public roads and (when I've ordered something) parking in my driveway.
- kubectl_h 4y agoWorking from home since the start of the pandemic I hear delivery trucks honking on reverse and backing into my driveway (granted I'm at the end of a cul-de-sac but I'm in a pretty remote area) 3-4 times a day. I also see trucks backing into empty driveways to stage unloading, as well as trucks convening in the cul-de-sac to do package transfers. I don't mind these things, but they do utilize my property and impact my little neighborhood. I'm not convinced some buzzing above is worse. How much do we own the air above us? Is that somehow not public?
- killingtime74 4y agoI mean planes and satellites also flyover your house without your consent. Do you think you own all the airspace from your house to the edge of the atmosphere? I don’t work at Amazon, just curious about your reasoning.
- capableweb 4y agoSomehow, I'm guessing the altitude makes a bit of a difference. A drone over your house might be visible and even hearable, while a satellite barely is.

- jdminhbg 4y agoHeh, I believe you. I haven't seen one yet, but looking forward to it.
