The South-Africa/Canadian born investor and current Chief Executive Officer of Tesla Motors,aired his opinion on the future of autonomous driving on his Twitter handle that self-driving car could make human drivers illegal and that it is dangerous to ride in an autonomous car. He added that Tesla is in support of any one beiing allowed to drive their cars.
However, when self-driving cars become safer than human-driven cars, the public may outlaw the latter. Hopefully not.

To add to what Elon Musk said, driverless cars will hurt the cab driver profession(talking from a business perspective). Their services would no longer be needed as they will be replaced by self-driving cars super taxi fleet. In fact so many industries will be broken up by robotic cars.
To be clear, Tesla is strongly in favor of people being allowed to drive their cars and always will be. Hopefully, that is obvious.
