People love the independence and freedom cars bring. People love the ability to control where they go, what route they take, and how fast they get there. People love to customize their cars and upgrade their cars. Even if autonomous driving completely takes over the world, people will still want to spend money purchasing and modifying cars.

Autonomous cars will be commonplace by 2025 and have a near monopoly by 2030, and the sweeping change they bring will eclipse every other innovation our society has experienced. They will cause unprecedented job loss and a fundamental restructuring of our economy, solve large portions of our environmental problems, prevent tens of thousands of deaths per year, save millions of hours with increased productivity, and create entire new industries that we cannot even imagine from our current vantage point.
