If anything you should be much more scared of more humans driving. Computer make WAY less mistakes than humans. Humans drink and drive, text and drive, fall asleep while driving. Driving is extremely dangerous and computers are programmed to do specific tasks like driving. So obviously computers should be controlling cars, not humans. It'll save many lives. Also they need that V2V so we don't crash around corners. The car will know from sensors and radar and can avoid it, while a person would be doomed to death or injury.
Some of us actually enjoy driving. Why is that so hard for people to understand?
When I drove with my parents a few times it wasn't really fun. It was frustration from not braking fast enough and passing stop signs and worry about cops seeing that. I don't see how driving on the highway could be fun. Me and a friend think it'd be terrifying because you have to drive so fast, if you hit another car you might be more likely to die. And if you don't brake soon enough it might be death, or jail and/or a ticket.

You're 18 and scared of driving? Your generation is much different than mine. Kids today are putting off getting a drivers license for as long as they can while everyone I knew couldn't wait for the freedom and fun of driving. It was a rite of passage.
You should practice driving more and you'll most likely get better.

A computer designed, built, installed, and programmed by a human is just as capable of failure. I'd hate to get a 404 error or the blue screen of death while speeding along on a highway. Even if they make the vehicle with a human driver manual mode, by then drivers will have so little experience that they wouldn't know how to drive properly nor safely. Electronics fail all the time. What we need is to make getting a driver's license harder with more learning behind the wheel with a qualified instructor as well as class room time.

I heard if you're over a certain age (25?) you don't have to test for a license. That's dangerous.

And this, my friends, is why there are fewer and fewer car enthusiasts out there and fewer and fewer young people getting driver's licenses.
Driving can be massive fun in the right car as your skill level improves.
Remember, computers are only as good as their programming, which was done by humans.
