Amazon says it has been given approval from regulators to fly drones farther and deliver goods to more customers.

The company says the Federal Aviation Administration has given it permission to operate its drones beyond the sight on its operator, allowing the expansion of drone delivery.

The company says it has developed a system to allow the drone to detect and avoid other things in the air to improve safety.

      With the proper slingshot and a motorcycle. You never know, it could be a box of pencils, dildos, or a book. It could could even be a box a computer memory, dildos and a book. You just shoot, catch, and run.
