A 22-year-old girl has been crying all along... The owner has found her! The doctor said there may be scars on the face, and the lakeside drone fell from the sky and scratched the pedestrian department | flight | drone

The night before yesterday at around 8 o'clock, a young girl and two friends were shopping on the in77 lakeside pedestrian street. Unexpectedly, a drone fell from the sky and scratched her face, and her friends were also hit by the drone.

The police officers from the Shangcheng Public Security Bureau quickly arrived and sent the girl to the hospital for treatment.

"I don't want to leave scars."

The reporter contacted the injured girl, whose surname is Guan. She is 22 years old and has been living with her parents in Hangzhou for more than ten years. She now runs a clothing store.

On the phone, Xiaoguan kept crying, "I haven't slept until today." One was a painful wound. Her mouth was hit by a drone propeller, and "a piece fell off." Her chin and face were both scratched, with wounds. On the other hand, Xiaoguan was worried about her injuries. After the incident, she was sent to the Provincial Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. After examination, the doctor indicated that there may be scars left. Xiaoguan was very worried about what to do in the future, "I don't want to leave a scar." Xiaoguan consulted with the doctor to see if the scar could be repaired. The doctor said she should wait for the wound to heal first, depending on the situation.

Xiaoguan said that she was walking with two friends in the middle, and one of them was also scratched on the head by a drone. Fortunately, it didn't scratch her. Before she could react, the drone rushed down.

At around 11:50 pm the night before yesterday, Xiaoguan received a call from the Hubin Police Station, informing her that the drone owner had found her and asking her to come to the police station as well. She and her boyfriend rushed to the police station around 1am after seeing the doctor.

According to Xiao Guan, the owner of the drone is about 18 years old and is a student. He may be a freshman. The police told her that after the accident, the owner of the plane fled out of fear, and later the police found him through investigation.

According to the reporter from Orange Persimmon Interactive, the aircraft owner had previously reported and registered this flight online. Due to an error during the landing of the drone without power, pedestrians were scratched. At present, the police station is still further investigating and handling this matter.

Reader: "Worried things have still happened."

The report has attracted a lot of discussion from readers.

"The worried thing still happened," said reader Xiao Wang, who also experienced the incident where a drone almost injured a person.

When visiting Yulan at Faxi Temple this year, I encountered a drone that almost injured a person. From then on, I saw the drone and quickly ran away. A few days ago, Qu Yuan Fenghe was also like this. Suddenly, someone was manipulating the drone, and the operation was not very skilled. The drone suddenly fell into the crowd, which was really terrifying. I remember that many places in Hangzhou are prohibited from flying, and besides professionals, ordinary enthusiasts really don't fly in these crowded places. It's too scary“

Xiao Wang said that during that time at Faxi Temple, there were many people, and suddenly someone in the crowd was manipulating the drone. "It was very clumsy, the plane slid down, and we were scared to death. Later, the plane trembled and flew upwards.". Xiao Wang said that he had met two middle-aged men in their forties who looked like beginners.

Many readers have left comments saying that they have encountered difficulties with drones.

Netizen A_chen said, "I have always felt that drones are very dangerous when flying, just like when I saw a ceiling fan when I was a child.".

A netizen said, "Last time I took children to watch birds in Jiangyangfan, there was a family with two children flying drones, and the noise scared the birds away."

Many netizens call for strengthened management of drones.

"It's too dangerous, the management department needs to take good care of it. Drones are already rampant."

"It's time to properly manage drones in Hangzhou West Lake Scenic Area and set up drone shielding facilities. There have been incidents of tourists' eyes being cut in 2017!"

The above reader mentioned that on the evening of May 18, 2017, near Beishan Street in Hangzhou, a man and his colleagues who came from Beijing to Hangzhou for a meeting were sitting and chatting. Suddenly, a runaway drone flew by with a high-speed rotating wing, scratching his left eye and pulling out a hole of about 1 centimeter

It is understood that the Hubin Pedestrian Street is currently not a no fly area, and there is no clear regulation on what time is usually a no fly period.

However, currently, during important periods such as holidays, scenic areas and other important locations with high pedestrian traffic will also be subject to control measures by public security departments in the scenic area and jurisdiction, prohibiting flights.

"Not flying in densely populated areas is basic common sense," many players say, even if there are no clear regulations, even in open areas where people pass by, they cannot fly.

When landing, the flight speed reaches 3 meters per second, and the propellers are sharp like blades

But currently, there are loopholes in drone management. Let's talk about this unexpected disaster.

At present, in Zhejiang Province, the safety management of drone flights is based on the "Zhejiang Province Public Safety Management Regulations for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles" implemented on May 1, 2019.

Although the Zhejiang Management Regulations stipulate a no fly policy, it is a guiding opinion.

At the national level, in January 2018, the Office of the National Air Traffic Control Commission organized the drafting of the Provisional Regulations on the Flight Management of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles. But it has not yet been officially promulgated. On April 7th this year, the State Council approved the Provisional Regulations on the Flight Management of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles.

In addition, the Civil Aviation Administration of China has successively issued a series of measures, including the "Air Traffic Management Measures for Civil Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Systems", "Management Measures for Commercial Flight Activities of Civil Unmanned Aerial Vehicles", and "Regulations on Real Name Registration Management of Civil Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Pilots", which are normative documents of industry management departments.

According to the Provisional Regulations, civil drones are classified into micro, light, small, medium, and large based on the level of operational risk.

Among them, micro drones refer to remote-controlled aircraft with an empty weight of less than 0.25 kilograms, designed to meet the requirements of a true flight height of no more than 50 meters, a maximum flight speed of no more than 40 kilometers per hour, and wireless transmission equipment that meets the technical requirements of low-power short-range wireless transmission equipment.

According to this regulation, the involved DJI Mini3 Pro drone belongs to the category of micro drones. According to the description of the aircraft model, it weighs 249 grams, can fly at a maximum altitude of 500 meters, has a maximum horizontal speed of 16 meters per second, and can reach a maximum of 5 meters per second during descent.

Last night, in the drone injury incident, due to the drone running out of battery, it was unable to activate the automatic return function and started automatic landing. According to the drone design standards, the flight speed at this time reached the normal level, reaching 3 meters per second.

Although the propeller blades of this drone are made of composite material, when rotating at high speed, the blades are as sharp as the blades of a household automatic meat grinder.

Drone enthusiasts who think they are self-taught are like "road killers"

A drone player pointed out that the involved drone happened to be weighing less than 250 grams, and the manufacturer also stated that there is no need to go through "real name registration" and other procedures during sales.

In the Provisional Regulations, the upper limit of the empty weight of open class unmanned aerial vehicles is set at 0.25 kilograms. At the same time, in combination with reality, the empty weight of conditional open class unmanned aerial vehicles is determined to not exceed 4 kilograms and their operational performance meets certain conditions, making them light unmanned aerial vehicles.

The Civil Aviation Administration of China has formulated the "Regulations on Real Name Registration Management of Civil Unmanned Aerial Vehicles", which stipulate that unmanned aerial vehicles with an empty weight of over 250 grams are included in the applicable management scope and need to be registered with real name in the "Civil Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Real Name Registration System of the Civil Aviation Administration of China".

However, the various aspects of drone flight management, which weigh less than 250 grams, are not as strict. Just buy it, register and activate the product.

The type of drone involved in this incident is small in size and cheap. Many consumers do not participate in relevant training and obtain a certificate of qualification before flying after buying it. Instead, they try it out by reading the manual and watching online videos. Some do not read the manual, and there will be video instructions on the app during operation.

These drone enthusiasts who think they are self-taught are like "road killers" who drive on the road without taking a driver's license exam, and are the "killers" who cause drone accidents.

In the past, professional level drone players have all passed the certification.

Mr. Han, an aerial photography expert from Hangzhou, said that currently, there are several departments that can provide training and certification for drone training exams. The Civil Aviation Administration, Sports Bureau, and social drone driving training institutions also provide training and certification. In addition, some manufacturers also provide training and certification. "They are all full-time learners, with 21 days for civil aviation and 4 days for social institution training.". Only through professional and systematic training can one master the principles of various levels of drone control, understand how to operate safely, and how to handle emergencies safely. This kind of training is actually just like the driving school training before we take the driver's license exam, which is necessary.

But currently, unlike a driver's license, there is no distinction between A, B, or C driver's license levels for drone driving. In actual management, certification is more about enhancing skills, but not a necessary condition for drones to ascend to the sky.

But without professional training, relying solely on one's own blind thinking can easily lead to accidents. Yesterday's lakeside injury incident, Mr. Han believes, "was caused by operational errors and improper handling."

He said that after a typical drone starts up, its battery level is in a countdown state, and the system will issue a reminder of how much time can be used. When the battery level reaches about 20%, it will prompt to return, and at this time, it should be operated to return. If the drone does not return, it will be forced to land at the next node. During the landing process, although the drone has its own obstacle avoidance function, the obstacle avoidance function is not good at night. The obstacle avoidance function can only be guaranteed under good lighting conditions.

According to the analysis of certified drone pilots, "some people rely too much on obstacle avoidance function, which is also the reason.".

In addition, novices without practical experience and systematic training may lack emergency response capabilities in case of emergencies.

Blindly taking up positions and causing numerous incidents of injury

The blind employment of enthusiasts has caused many incidents of injury.

Readers also reported that she often sees children chasing drones, which is "very dangerous".

In drone incidents, both adults and children may be injured.

In January of this year, during the Spring Festival, Mr. Wu from Wuhan took his 3-year-old daughter to play outdoors. During this time, he took aerial photos using a drone. While operating the drone to land, his daughter was curious and ran up to catch it. In an instant, he was scratched by the rapidly rotating wing, and his forehead and nose were both scratched and bleeding.

On March 12th of this year, during a performance event at Qingxiu Mountain Scenic Area in Nanning, Guangxi, a female actress was performing the "Flying Fairy High Altitude Performance" project when a uncontrollable drone fell from high altitude without warning and hit the actress's face. The drone crashed due to a tourist accidentally touching a steel wire rope during operation, causing the actress to be injured.

Lawyer Zheng Ruoyang, Director of Zhejiang Handing Law Firm, said that due to the fact that the Provisional Regulations have not yet been promulgated, there is currently a vacuum zone in the management of drone flights that is difficult to punish.

Once an injury incident occurs, it is often resolved through negotiation. If negotiation fails, the injured person often seeks compensation through civil litigation.

Lawyer Zheng said that in the actor injury incident, tourists who cause personal injury to the actor due to infringement should bear civil liability for infringement. Tourists should compensate the actor for medical expenses, nursing expenses, loss of work, as well as possible subsequent expenses such as plastic surgery. Another lawyer believes that the scenic area management party also needs to bear corresponding civil compensation responsibilities. The scenic area in question belongs to public places, and the management has an obligation to ensure the safety of personnel in the area.

Returning to this incident, some readers have also mentioned that the owner of the involved drone fled at the time. Will he be punished?

It is understood that although Article 15 of the Zhejiang Management Regulations stipulates that in the event of an emergency during the flight of unmanned aerial vehicles that may endanger personal and property safety, the control personnel shall immediately take measures to prevent accidents and report to relevant departments such as public security and flight control. After receiving the report, relevant departments shall dispose of it in accordance with the law and immediately notify other relevant management departments.

However, currently there is no clear regulation on "drone hit and run" as in the Road Traffic Safety Law, which stipulates the act of escaping after causing a traffic accident. The Zhejiang Management Regulations do not mention relevant penalty rules, so there is also a gap that cannot be followed.

Can children play with drones?

A netizen reported, "Every night in the Asian Games Park, there are also drones flying at ultra-low altitudes through the crowd and passing over their heads. They are very scared, and some are operated by children."

Playing drones with young children is currently a headache inducing phenomenon.

In March 2019, Ms. Yu from Jiaxing rode a bike to exercise along the Huanhu Road in Xiuhu Park. During the cycling process, she collided head-on with an 11 year old drone controlled by Tao Tao, causing Ms. Yu to fall and be injured. After judicial appraisal, Ms. Yu was found to have a level ten disability.

Because some drones are getting smaller and cheaper nowadays, parents even buy them as gifts for their children. This is essentially equivalent to buying a motor vehicle and letting children who have not learned how to drive on the road.

The Provisional Regulations actually stipulate the age for playing drones. Article 53 stipulates that if a person under the age of 14 is flying a light drone without on-site supervision by an adult, the civil aviation management agency shall impose a fine of not less than 200 yuan but not more than 500 yuan. Those who fail to obtain a civil drone pilot qualification certificate or license in accordance with regulations and drive civil drones shall be fined not less than 5000 yuan but not more than 100000 yuan by the civil aviation management agency. If a drone is piloted beyond the scope specified in the certificate or license, the civil aviation management agency shall temporarily withhold the certificate or license for more than 6 months but less than 1 year, and impose a fine of not less than 30000 yuan but not more than 200000 yuan.

Nowadays, drones weighing less than 250 grams, with their small price and size, have become popular in the market, but have become a major challenge in current management work.

According to relevant sources, before the promulgation and implementation of the Provisional Regulations, if this factor is considered to be added, corresponding management provisions will be formulated for both production enterprises and consumer manipulators, which will inevitably govern the current chaos. He also suggested that relevant departments should limit the weight of aircraft, control the altitude and area of flight, and require the provision of licenses in their daily management.
