How do you get a subsidy without politics???
In the real world people like to own things. I'm single and I own two vehicles, and it's not unusual (here in the U.S.) for a family to have a "extra car" (or a car and a motorcycle or some kind of "special" vehicle).
I have a friend who had some health problems and basically go too old to drive. She'd love to have self-driving car! And kids that are too young to drive too! (If they have rich parents.)
That's what "academics" and "dreamers" think...I think the big break will come if they do manage fully autonomous self driving. When that happens nobody wants to own a car.
