Aeronautics: unmanned aircraft systems; destruction of drones flying in violation of critical infrastructure guidelines; allow. Amends 2016 PA 436 (MCL 259.301 - 259.331) by adding sec. 8a.

HB 5325 allows police officers and private security personnel at critical infrastructure sites (like power plants or bridges) to disable or destroy drones flying in violation of existing laws protecting those sites. It directly affects drone operators who fly near protected infrastructure without authorization. The key provision grants immunity from liability for property damage to the drone when officers act under this law, but only if federal law does not preempt it. This bill creates a specific legal mechanism for responding to unauthorized drone activity at critical infrastructure locations.
