Abstract. The current paper has provided a scholarly and practical commentary on amendments to transportation security legislation, as well as to bylaws that define the legal framework for the implementation of a relatively new function by transportation security units, namely combating unmanned aerial vehicles, which are increasingly being used to commit acts of illegal interference in transportation activities. There has been presented an interpretation of the new provisions of transportation legislation governing these issues. There has been studied the issue of training personnel to employ counter-drone equipment and methods.

Keywords: transport security; act of unlawful interference; unmanned aerial vehicles; transport security units.
