Remote Sensing
Learning about remote sensing reminded me of how now drones can be used on freeways and highways in order to ticket people who are speeding. I always see signs when I'm driving on certain highways that say "Speed Enforced by Drones". I also have a friend that was ticketed by a drone one time. It's crazy that remote sensing can be used for so many different purposes like giving people speeding tickets.

Yeah, I know what you're talking about. I'm from SoCal, so I had to drive up here to move in. On the way here I also saw those signs on the freeway and I didn't know they did that. I took an Engineering class and in that class they talked about here when they use drones to give tickets they calculate the speed it takes to get from one distance to another and that's how they know if you were speeding or not.
