Requiring the driver to be awake and alert while not requiring them to actually do anything for long stretches of time is a recipe for disaster.

Everybody who's looked at this seriously agrees. The aviation industry has looked hard at that issue for a long time. Watch "Children of the Magenta".[1] This is a chief pilot of American Airlines talking to pilots about automation dependency in 1997. Watch this if you have anything to do with a safety-related system.
