Being able to sleep on long trips is the only compelling reason for me to ever buy a self driving car. The local, state and federal governments need to allow the "driver" to be able to sleep during the drive, which they don't do currently, or it's pointless.

Now I'm imagining self driving RV's roaming continents, stopping only to sight-see and charge via extendable rooftop solar arrays.
