Sometimes when I’m doing yard work in the front yard I’ll notice the Amazon delivery truck come on my street. I’ll watch as it stops at about other or maybe every third house on the street and delivers something. I live in a suburban neighborhood with dozens of other streets very similar to mine. There are hundreds more streets like mine in the neighborhoods surrounding mine and I’m imagining a few handfuls of Amazon trucks are hitting these streets each day.

Then I imagine the amount of drone’s required to replicate even a portion of these Amazon deliveries and it starts to make my head spin.

I can imagine some use cases for the drone deliveries but there is no way I can imagine it replacing much of the current delivery system.
