The Lake County Sheriff's Office said drone delivery representatives reported the incident. A two-man crew was campaigning in a nearby community, writes Fox 35 Orlando, which included...
I don’t think thats right, otherwise you could sit in a drone and harass people on their property as long as you don’t land there… That doesn’t sound right. And i know its not legal in Germany, i hope its not actually like that in USA
Harassing people violates local law, and reports of harassment and such are the only way local law enforcement can respond to drone issues since local law enforcement does not have the jurisdiction to enforce the federal statutes where the FAA regulates drones.
Drone law is crazy. There are lots of unintuitive things about it. It needs an overhaul.
Ok but what classifies as harassment? For me it would be seeing, hearing or feeling intrusive behavior by airborne objects in the airspace directly above my property.
What you describe is common. If you see a drone, you call your police and tell them you feel threatened or harassed. They will deal with it.
FYI all drones are required to broadcast a remote id that is registered to the drone device which is registered to a drone pilot. Your phone can receive that remote id signal, which you can give to law enforcement so they can find the pilot. Not having remote id on a drone is a felony, because once again, drones operate in federally controlled airspace.

if thats how it works, thats ok.

It is correct, you can even land there if you must and you’re allowed to retrieve it. I’ve had to explain this to a farmer once while recovering a hot air balloon at gunpoint.
The emergency landing is one thing but just flying directly over private property (as in living areas and industrial complexes) is just crazy to me, agricultural areas are a different thing threre is nothing privat happening there and there are no possible industrial problems (security, safety…)

There is so little unoccupied or public land in places where people want to live. It would be impossible if that was the rule.
I said agricultural areas are fine cause nothing is happening there, Forrest as well and yes thats basically how it is in Germany.
Forests don’t need deliveries. And good luck flying planes anywhere over just forests.
There’s a reason the FAA has the regulations it has.
