A bill for an act relating to the use of unmanned aerial vehicles by law enforcement officers.

Summary

The bill bars state and local agencies from using drones for routine traffic law enforcement, except when a certified officer uses a drone to help catch a driver fleeing a police chase. It also says drone‑collected information can only be used in court if it comes from public airspace or is gathered under a valid search warrant and complies with law. The changes aim to protect privacy while giving police a tool for dangerous pursuits.
