  • Deadly Drones? Why FAA Regulations Miss the Mark on Drone Safety
    Deadly Drones? Why FAA Regulations Miss the Mark on Drone Safety Steve Calandrillo,* Jason Oh,† and Ari Webb‡ 23 STAN. TECH. L. REV. 182 (2020) ABSTRACT A rapidly growing commercial drone industry has prompted the introduction of nu- merous regulations governing American airspace. Congress has tasked the Federal Avia- tion Administration (FAA) with “developing plans for the use of the navigable airspace to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient use” of American skies. While well-intended, the FAA has departed from Congressional will by imposing an excessive regulatory re- gime that threatens to stifle drone technology and innovation. In fact, many FAA regula- tions fail to address the very problem they seek to fix, namely the safety of our airspace. The unfortunate result is that myriad scientific and pragmatic applications of cutting- edge drone technology have been stalled or thwarted entirely inside the United States, forcing innovation efforts to move abroad. FAA regulations must be dramatically scaled back and reformed to reflect the count- less benefits and comparatively minimal risks associated with drone technology. The cur- rent rules cover innocuous use cases, are too restrictive even when addressing cases where regulation makes sense, and fail to permit efficient technical approaches to reaching reg- ulatory objectives. The nonsensical rule requiring any person over the age of thirteen to * Jeffrey & Susan Brotman Professor of Law, University of Washington School of Law, [email protected].
