How do Police Respond to a Legal Drone Flight.

In this video, we put Humberside Police to the test by conducting a perfectly legal drone flight, inspired by a shocking incident involving West Yorkshire Police. After watching this eye-opening video (   • I Sued West Yorkshire Police For Over £10k 💰💰  , where ‪@NewsNowYorkshire‬ was unlawfully arrested and mistreated by a tyrannical officer, resulting in a lawsuit exceeding £10,000, I decided to investigate how police respond to legal drone activities. In the original incident, the officer not only wrongfully detained ‪@NewsNowYorkshire‬ but also subjected him to harsh treatment inside the police van, gripping the handcuffs tightly for an extended period, causing the metal to painfully dig into his wrists—this despite the fact that NNY shouldn’t have been detained at all. A simple Google search could have confirmed the legality of his drone flight. Join us as we explore police accountability and drone rights in action!

Thankfully this visit to Preston Rd Police Station was much less dramatic. Three Police people came out to ask why I am filming this is perfectly ok by me and they are well within their rights to do so. They were polite and friendly. As they start to turn our interaction into a fishing trip I get a little sarcastic with them. They realise the fishing is not good here and retreat back inside. Everything was nice and friendly despite the sarcasm.

Recently, I’ve found myself hooked on videos by creators like Auditing Britain, Focus Pocus, DJ Audits, Pure Audits, and DJE Media. What draws me in isn’t just the drone footage or the look into random industrial estates and police stations—it’s the psychology behind the encounters that unfold. There’s something fascinating about watching how people react when these auditors show up with cameras, asserting their right to film in public spaces. The confrontations often reveal a mix of confusion, frustration, and outright delusion about what the law actually allows. It’s almost like a live experiment in human behaviour, where authority, ego, and misunderstanding collide in real time.
One thing that stands out is how many people—security guards, employees, even police officers—seem convinced that filming in public is somehow illegal or requires permission. I’ve seen staff march out with absolute certainty, demanding the auditors stop, only to falter when faced with the reality that, legally, they’re on shaky ground. It’s a strange kind of confidence, rooted in a belief that their personal discomfort with being filmed translates into some unwritten rule. The auditors, for their part, lean into this, calmly citing their rights while the other side scrambles to justify their stance. It’s a psychological tug-of-war—some double down on their delusions about the law, while others back off, visibly rattled by their own uncertainty. Watching it play out makes me wonder how much of our understanding of rules is just assumed rather than known.

This summer, I’ll be exploring drone pilots’ rights across various environments, focusing on the psychology behind the confrontations they face. Many individuals, unaware of actual laws, attempt to impose their own beliefs about what the rules should be. Beyond the fascinating psychological dynamics, I aim to create videos that both educate viewers on the legal realities and also entertain.
