I hear that. I will NEVER be able to buy a home anywhere close to where I live at the moment. At one point though, I learned that living in an area with all things accessible was a major priority in my life and paramount to my happiness. I don't even own a car, and I say that proudly. The driverless car just seems to me to be a flying car type fixation with no real systemic consequence. I think broader discussions about such things as societal values, city planning, and even negative gearing (had to look that up :) would ultimately prove to be more effective in declogging our roads. Change the culture and the rest will follow.
