It basically happened for horses.
Did it? I did a cursory search and it seems like many places still permit horse-drawn carriages, just not on limited access highways. Sometimes with fairly onerous licensing and operational requirements (speed limits, poo management, etc), but still allowed.
I think that will be how human-driven cars are in 30(?) years. Rare, but allowed with restrictions.
Horses don't vote.
Neither do cars?
Drivers, however, absolutely do. And I do not see enough drivers voting away their own ability to drive any time soon.
