If the car can't drive itself empty or with a 10 year old alone in the back then why bother?
Because the leading cause of collisions with motor vehicles is driver error and a computer will be much safer at driving than a human, even if it isn't in full control all of the time.
Stonehedge-
But if the self driving isn't in control 100% of the time and requires the driver to take over when it gets tricky you can be almost certain that the driver will not be paying attention when it happens and will have forgotten what to do/how to handle a car.
I'd love to remove human drivers but it needs to be level 5 or it is worse IMHO.

Which means you can't read your email or go to sleep or not have a license and the while thing has almost no point. If the car can't drive itself empty or with a 10 year old alone in the back then why bother?
