  • For the last few weeks, people in New Jersey have reported repeated drone sightings, which have expanded to New York, Pennsylvania and Maryland.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the Department of Transportation are enhancing their efforts to manage the increasing number of drone sightings in U.S. airspace. This initiative includes deploying additional resources to better track, identify, and mitigate unauthorized drone activities. The move comes in response to the growing concern over drones posing risks to commercial aviation, national security, and public safety.

This response aims to balance the benefits of drone technology with the need for safety and security in national airspace.
