Driverless Florida is two hours up I-75. Fort Myers sits between the next two docks.
No robotaxi carries passengers in Fort Myers today — no operator has announced one, and we won’t pretend otherwise. What Southwest Florida has is position: Florida Statutes §316.85 — the most permissive AV statute in the country — covers Lee County today, the nearest driverless metro is Tampa, about two hours up I-75 (Tesla went unsupervised there July 21, 2026; Waymo named it a next market July 8, 2026), and on DockDuty’s published roadmap the next two docks — Miami and Tampa — sit on either side of Fort Myers. This page is the honest version of how ownership works with DockDuty today.
The honest status: no Fort Myers depot yet
Where DockDuty stands · August 2026
Depot #1 is targeted to open in Greater Orlando in Q4 2026. There is no DockDuty depot in Fort Myers, and we’re not going to imply one is under construction.
Our published roadmap is Florida-first: Miami breaks ground when Orlando is ~80% reserved and operating, Tampa follows on the same trigger — potentially as parallel builds. Fort Myers sits between those two, roughly two hours from either one, so the cascade builds toward Southwest Florida from both coasts.
When Fort Myers moves from named market to construction is shaped by demand we can point to. That’s exactly what the list at the bottom of this page is.

Why Fort Myers matters to a depot company
Fort Myers’ case isn’t an operator announcement — there isn’t one, and we won’t invent it. Its case is position. Florida Statutes §316.85 requires no human operator, no special state permit, and preempts local rules statewide — it covers Lee County today, and it’s the same framework that let Miami, Orlando, and Tampa all turn on driverless service within July 2026. The nearest of those metros, Tampa, is about two hours up I-75, and on our roadmap Miami (dock #2) and Tampa (dock #3) bracket Southwest Florida. The full breakdown: Florida’s robotaxi law, explained, and the dated map of every live robotaxi metro.
The demand is already measured. Southwest Florida International set its second consecutive record in 2025 with 11.2 million passengers, and Lee County drew 3.32 million visitors in 2025 who spent more than $3.3 billion, per the county’s visitor bureau — an airport-to-beach, winter-season ride profile that keeps point-to-point fleets busy. Southwest Florida has been comfortable with autonomy for years, too: Babcock Ranch, the solar-powered town 15 miles northeast of Fort Myers, was piloting driverless shuttles as far back as 2018. Every robotaxi that eventually works these corridors needs charging, cleaning, and a stall between rides — the layer DockDuty runs. The primer: what a robotaxi depot actually does.
One thing Fort Myers buyers should know: the Cybercab — the car individual owners will put on the network — has no public order book yet. That’s the window: how to be ready on day one. (On the Atlantic side instead? There’s a page for Fort Lauderdale too.)
Frequently asked questions
Is there a DockDuty depot in Fort Myers?
Not yet — and we won’t pretend otherwise. Depot #1 is targeted to open in Greater Orlando in Q4 2026, and our published roadmap is Florida-first: Miami breaks ground when Orlando is ~80% reserved and operating, Tampa follows on the same trigger, potentially as parallel builds. Fort Myers sits between those two docks — roughly two hours from either one — so when the roadmap extends past the named three, Southwest Florida is an obvious next lane, and registering interest here directly shapes the timing.
Can I own a Cybercab from Fort Myers before a Fort Myers depot exists?
Yes — that’s the point of own-from-anywhere. Your reservation attaches to the DockDuty network, not to one city. Reserve a stall today ($450, fully refundable until your Cybercab is onboarded), your car earns at depot #1 in Greater Orlando, and you watch it from Fort Myers. In the reservation flow you can elect Fort Myers, FL as your preferred market.
How much could a Cybercab make?
Nobody has fleet-scale Cybercab earnings history yet — including us — so every number anyone quotes is a projection. Our free earnings calculator lets you set daily revenue, active days, and fleet size, shows the full fee math, and can email you your exact scenario. Projections, not guarantees.
