Kind of a set-back for quick delivery of emergency medical supplies to natural disaster areas or donated hearts, kidneys, livers, etc. in transplant emergencies.

Not to mention all the cr@p people buy from Amazon, LOL!

One would assume that emergency medical and police drones would be prominently marked.

The prospective Amazon Delivery Drone certainly is. . .

A friend in the biz says we will be hero's the day we save a kid walking away from a day car in the woods or a Senior with Alzheimer's that does the same. A friend who is volunteer fire on one of the coast tells me they want to look into it as an alternative to sending crews out for missing boats in a storm to verify the missing souls before they risk man and craft. Again they will be hero's.

However what the FAA did to the model-airplane guys as they lumped them in with UAV's and when back on their word when it comes to registration was dirty pool IMHO and uncalled for, shame on them.
