California gets it Right?


California lawmakers approve measure restricting the use of drones over private property by a 43-11 vote.

State Bill 142 introduced by Sen Hannah-Beth Jackson (D-Santa Barbara) would make flying a drone less than 350 feet over private property a trespass violation.

A person wrongfully occupies real property and is liable for damages pursuant to Section 3334 if, without express permission of the person or entity with the legal authority to grant access or without legal authority, he or she operates an unmanned aircraft or unmanned aircraft system less than 350 feet above ground level within the airspace overlaying the real property.
The bill now heads to the California Senate.
