The argument is that safety is already naturally incentivized. People don’t want to be in crashes, so they naturally avoid.
And an awake human brain, on site and paying attention and in control of the speed, is a better safety mechanism than a car that won’t go over a specific speed.
People also overestimate their reflexes and abilities, and lower speeds result in fewer injuries and deaths. Sure, being awake is good, but so is going slower; why not both?
