The Big Empty: Drones Show the Effect of Stay Stay-At-Home Orders

Drones show empty streets across the country.

Up Sonder hopes all of you are staying home and staying safe during these trying times. It’s an odd experience that the most we can do is stay home, but all of our efforts to obey the new maxim of social distancing is helping everyone else. 

It is also, to a large part, working. If you live in a major metropolitan area, all you have to do is open Google Maps and see all green, traffic-free highways! But our favorite way of seeing the results of stay-at-home orders is drones! 

Drones are a great way to put into perspective just how much life in American cities has changed in the last few weeks. Check out the videos below to see for yourself. As you watch, notice the difference music and sound effects can make.
