Self driving cars will happen but they will need a bit of help from their environment, just as human drivers need stop signs, light signals etc. I can see urban streets and freeways being first to succumb to self driving. Remote, lightly traveled roads will take a long time ie decades before self driving is safe there. The real conundrum of self driving is that if it becomes capable for 99.9% of situations people find when things go really bad, heavy snow storm, earthquake, floods, forest fires etc drivers will have lost their touch for driving just when they need it most and the self driving abandons them.
