Self driving cars will create a virtuous cycle, ageing drivers who lose their licenses will be forced to buy them to stay mobile, this availability will decrease police/insurance/legislative tolerance of poor driving which will increase the number of drivers required to buy them. The boomers are going to make this happen.
People won't "buy" self driving cars, they will briefly borrow them from ZipCar, Uber or Ford.
The younger generation as a whole is much less interested in learning to drive or purchase a car. They will also be pushing to make this happen.
