Take action against pilots who fly their drones close to airplane or helicopter.
The number of near-miss incidents involving civilian drones reported in media is soaring. It is due to inexperienced pilots, wide availability of RTF drones, needing little talent to fly. Laws not being appropriately communicated would unfairly affect the airport owners & emergency response team.
The below are all the appropriate links that address the issue raised in this petition.

You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you're concerned about the dangers posed by drones, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. We're not sure whether you'd like the law to be changed, or whether you'd like the Government to take action to raise awareness of existing laws.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
