At some point the difference in safety between the user error of manually driven cars and the software error of automated vehicles will be such a huge gap that manually driven cars will just be outlawed. Think about the sheer number of people who die in traffic accidents, if auto-driving cars can reduce that by 90% (which isn't unrealistic) then you'd be worse than a drunk driver for selfishly insisting on driving yourself just because you enjoy it. Driving for fun will be relegated to tracks.
