Some aircraft are autonomous unmanned helicopters and a few of them are small enough to carry in one hand and allow one to put a camera in the sky anywhere, anytime.

According to the FAA, drone hobbyists should fly no higher than 400 feet, stay clear of stadiums and people, and avoid flying within five miles of airports. During wildfires and other emergencies, the FAA imposes temporary restrictions. Why do these drone keep threatening the public safety?
