I'd love it, I'd go back to school for one

Play so many video games

I think sleeping would negate the purpose though, you need to be able to see when something is wrong and take control of the vehicle

I guess you're right on the sleeping part, might not be the best idea. But I'm sure if the trucking companies could skip sleeping time for trucks and allow the person to sleep while driving. They would 100% do it.

A loud siren/alarm or something could wake you up I guess if something goes wrong or if you're nearing your destination
