As small drones become a part of everyday life, the FAA is unveiling plans to regulate them.

FOX News Radio’s Rachel Sutherland reports from Washington.

Among the proposed rules — keeping drones within sight of operators at all times… New York Democrat Senator Chuck Schumer thinks the agency is off to a good start on drones.

(Schumer)”They do lots of good things. We’ve got to be careful when it comes to safety and to privacy.”�

Operators would have to fly drones at less than 500 feet and also — no nighttime flights — which could mean late-night drone pizza deliveries are out.�

The final regulations could still be a few years away.
