The youngest in gen alpha are just being born, there's a real chance they may not learn to drive at all because self driving is ubiquitous.

I don't see unattended self-driving becoming the norm during the next 20 years. I'm skeptical it'll happen in 50 years.

There are an uncountable number of non-foreseeable driving events and road conditions. I believe we'd have to rethink/redesign roads to adjust to limitations of FSD.

Past that: A top reason for late teens not driving now is parents can't afford car insurance rates that approach their housing costs.
