I have had an idea - best use of autonomous vehicles

I have had an idea (no laughing in the back there!)
If autonomous vehicles are on their way we should enforce a new law such that:
- anyone found driving dangerously / losing their licence due to points / caught drink driving / caught without insurance / etc. should be banned from driving a normal car for ever and only allowed to drive an autonomous car...
- anyone caught hogging the middle lane of the motorway
- anyone caught driving dangerously slowly
- anyone over 70 (subject to either retest / hearing test / reaction test / etc. to continue as normal)
- etc.
with one stroke all dangerous drivers would have their ability to be dangerous removed from them...
Totalitarian dictatorships rule ok
