Drones: Coming Soon To the New Jersey Turnpike?

Posted by Soulskill on from the you-can-trust-us dept.

redletterdave writes "The FAA predicts 30,000 drones will patrol the US skies by 2020, but New Jersey drivers could see these unmanned aerial vehicles hovering above the New Jersey Turnpike and Garden State Parkway much sooner than that. New Jersey lawmakers from both Republican and Democratic parties have introduced a number of bills to tackle the drones issue before the federal government starts issuing the first domestic drone permits in September 2015."

    These things are a menace and should stay in combat zones where killing people is somewhere on the _desired_ side of the scale.
