It won't be everyone, those that need control or fear technology or dislike change will continue to avoid. Unless they die first, they will be in minority within the next 10 - 15 years. Ford and GM have already announced their decision to stop investing in their automobile line and focus on electric and self driving.

I will happily trust the technology rather than the bus driver, cab driver, limo driver, uber driver that requires me to ignorantly believe they are capable.
But I think we're in the minority that trusts technology.
