The only ones I question are the parking meters and toll booths. These are just increasing here in my city. Of course, neither take coin anymore, but I can't imagine the government making things more convenient or cheaper any time soon. Of course, if we ever get a truly functional public transportation system, maybe we won't need to own, drive or park our own vehicles.

I dunno, they don't have manned booths in Dallas anymore. They scan your license and send a bill if you don't have a toll tag on your windshield.
ETA: I can see some of these things falling out of popularity in a big way, but my kid will never not know what cursive handwriting is or what actual books are. Even if their exposure is mostly at home.
I really hope libraries continue to exist with physical objects as well as having e-collections. People without e-readers can get paper books (and people with e-readers can get e-books, for that matter), people like me without a music playing device can get physical copies of audiobooks and cds. At my particular library, they might still have a VHS collection and books on actual tapes, although they've been weeding those a lot lately. They've also started getting more e-audiobooks and not always necessarily having the discs, but I can get most anything through interlibrary loan.

For my favorite artists, I still buy the physical CD, and then convert it to digital on my own. I want to hold it and read the liner notes and see the photos. If the artists ever quit producing those type things, I guess I'll have to catch up with the times and buy all digital.
I still am exclusively paper books though.
