I don't see how they can say self-driving cars overall will save lives, if you have to pay attention all the time to take over driving from part time in an emergency....Why not pay attention full time like you should in the first place and just drive the friggin' car?...
More lives will be lost to cater to the desire for laziness and self-indulgence provided by autonomous cars and their hi-tech lackies...

Thats more or less what they've found with pilots. When the plane is flying itself the pilot gets complacent and loses situation awareness. Then when he has to take over, because things are beyond what autopilot can handle, things can go very badly very quickly.
I've often wondered what would happen if Automakers spent their money on driving schools instead of active safety tech.
