From the skies to the ground, @DC_Police’s drone technology is transforming how we keep communities safe.
Faster searches. Improved responses. Smarter policing.

Reminder 🚨
If you own a drone, avoid flying near emergency services helicopters 🚁
It can have a serious impact in an emergency, and the critical care the helicopters can provide.
Our dronecode advises where you can fly your drone safely.

We've signalled proposals designed to make #drone flights safer and easier for users to understand and comply with regulations.
This will allow the continued expansion of drone flying, while also increasing the safety and security of drone operations.
