There's no reason why manual driving needs to be made illegal.

A much more likely scenario is that safety features, starting with AEB collision avoidance, will become mandatory.

This will progress to the point where autopilot will always be running in a supervisory role, ready to take over in an instant if you're doing something dumb that could harm yourself or others.

Older cars can be prohibited from using, first, HOV-style "automatic" lanes, then highways in rush hour, then highways altogether, much sooner than that.
