I don't think the personal auto is going away.
I think the end of the gas driven SUV sized vehicle is at hand, but smaller vehicles powered by everything from gas to electricity will be part of our reality for a long time. I do think that autonomous drive vehicles will eventually be developed that will make our roads safer and allow the users all the distractions they want while going from point A to point B.
But like I said, the auto is NOT going away... it will simply evolve.
There is a good chance however that there will be greater acceptance of cycling... especially when cars automatically obey the laws.
