That follows the old saying - you'll lose it if you don't use it.
It makes perfect sense. The more you engage your brain and your body in everyday life, the better off (mentally and physically) you will be. People are becoming so depended on apps on their smart phones and having cars do everything for them, they soon won't be able to think for themselves.
I think there's a use for self driving cars. There are those who are no longer able to drive. It's a great way for them to be able to get around. If capable people start driving (more accurately riding around in) autonomous cars, the number of people who are unable to drive will rise dramatically. Can you imagine what will happen as these autonomous cars get older? Electronic glitches / malfunctions. Scary thought.
...and then there's hacking (and I'm not referring to Pedro's type.)
