It's not much different than horse and buggy to the model T, carbs to fuel injection, and big blocks to ls motors. We can accept change and be open to new and many times better ways or set in our ways and frustrated with society.
There are many times I don't enjoy driving. Bumper to bumper traffic for miles an d miles comes to mind. Think a Los Angeles freeway in rush hour traffic. There is a time and place for autonomous driving. Then all those cars and the smog. I remember the first time I went to LA in 2000. I was filling up my car and asked a local where the fire was, he told me it was just the smog. HA Can you imagine the LA freeway full of cars built in the 60's today? The population is growing rapidly which means we need to stay adaptable and find better ways.
I do hope that some type of grandfathering stays in place. I don't see anyway around it. A majority aren't going to be able to simply buy an electric car tomorrow.
I'd own a Tesla and I'd own a muscle car. They both serve a purpose.
