This is not a valid comparison, though. Rather, consider the extrapolation: "drive for 20 hours or let a computer drive for 20 hours?". (edit: the extrapolation is intended to highlight the absurdity of the premise.) The correct answer is to mitigate the risk with breaks or safer alternative transport such as a hired driver. It's not a closed system with only two possible solutions.
If the solution is not tenable, the plan should be aborted. Not rammed through via abuse of technology.
