The UK Home Office has taken to social media to remind drone pilots and operators in the UK the consequences of breaking the law.
Sending out a video tweet, the ministerial department informed the public as to what consequences would follow if drone rules were broken.
The message also highlighted how anyone aware of drone misuse could alert authorities quickly in a bid to put a stop to it.
Watch the video below:
It is against the law to fly a drone near an airport or airfield boundary.
