Drone Cure

With so many idiots flying drones now the only cure I can think of is what they did for radar detectors for cars, make it illegal to own one.

Radar detectors aren't illegal everywhere

They are not illegal to own, but illegal to operate.

Good thing that isn't the case for all machines and vehicles!

........ Over 100 people a day die on highways every day in North America.

To date, exactly "zero " deaths attributed to recreational or commercial systems.

Now, if we could ban idiots, then you have something!

Legal to own in Alberta when I lived there, not legal to use, not legal to use in BC either. Looking online there are many sources that say otherwise but I know a lot of people who have been in court trying to fight fines for use and lost in both provinces.
Saskatchewan they should be illegal, you can see forever and a day, if you get caught speeding there you deserve it LOL

Nope, fully legal in the three provinces. That's straight from buddies I know in the RCMP.

Well, I just asked a friend in the RCMP here in BC and he says fully illegal. The ticket I goT IN Alberta and the law as shown to me in the courthouse says 100% illegal as well.
