LAS VEGAS ( KLAS ) – If you think we’ve been “droning” on too long about anything and everything F1 related, Metro Police say, “hold my (non-alcoholic) beer!”

While Sheriff Kevin McMahill and hundreds of officers were anywhere and everywhere protecting each night’s 100,000 race fans, Deputy Chief Dori Koren highlighted an elite Metro unit, tweeting:

“Last night during F1 in Las Vegas, this guy tried to fly a drone on The Strip, which is illegal and dangerous. Our anti-drone unit tracked the activity. And – as you know – we don’t mess around. Illegally fly a drone = up to $15k in fines. So be smart: don’t fly a drone on The Strip. Keep your drone dreams grounded.”

Thanks to Metro Police for everything they do for all of us every day – even the things we don’t always know about.

Buckle up, drive carefully – and, please put down that phone! When you write in to join the “Driving You Crazy” conversation, photos and video obviously help tell your story, but not taken while you’re driving!
