Florida is among the more permissive jurisdictions for autonomous vehicles (without a human driver). State law allows fully driverless operation and is intended to create uniform statewide regulation.

It is a common misconception that once a document is notarized, it is legally “final” and therefore enforceable. In practice, notarization does far less than people assume. It does not validate the substance of an agreement, confirm that the terms are lawful, or ensure that the parties had the capacity or intent required to form a binding contract. It simply authenticates the identity of the signer and, in generally, confirms that the signature was made voluntarily.
