A computer-implemented method causes an amelioration of an erratic manner in which a vehicle is being driven. One or more processors receive, from at least one sensor associated with a vehicle, sensor readings indicating that the vehicle is being operated by a driver in an erratic manner. Processor(s) compute a risk R associated with the driver operating the vehicle in the erratic manner, and determine whether the risk R is above a predefined threshold. In response to determining that the risk R is above the predefined threshold, processor(s) deploy an aerial drone to a current location of the vehicle, and transmit instructions to the aerial drone to perform an action that causes an amelioration of the erratic manner in which the vehicle is being driven.
