If a self-driving car has the following two attributes:

- It becomes affordable to me
- If it can drive 100% on its own, all the time, no expections... as I have poor vision, and are not allowed to drive any vehicle

then it will be a godsend to me. My mobility would be increased tenfold or so.

Still, I think the fact remains that lower end jobs have been disappearing for a long time, to be replaced by higher end jobs for which people are either not educated, or companies are asking for education levels that are beyond reasonable for such a job.
