Driving isn't a job we should be protecting IMO. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying self-driving cars are necessarily the answer either, just that if I had to choose, I'd pick self-driving cars every time over human drivers, provided they're on well-defined routes with ample testing (like in a city).

We should be solving personal transportation another way, such as:

mass transit
segregated bicycle/pedestrian paths
higher density so popular destinations are closer together
