I'm really not up on how this all works, but isn't https://github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia-docker/blob/master/ubuntu-1... hardcoding driver versions in a different way?

No, this is the CUDA toolkit, it doesn't depend on the driver version. You can compile CUDA code without having a GPU (which is the case during a "docker build").

Edit: in other words, your Docker image doesn't depend on a specific driver version and can be ran on any machine with sufficient drivers. Driver files are mounted as a volume when starting the container.
