You can hire someone in another country to drive remotely, so can find cheaper labor. They could also theoretically have them multitask driving multiple vehicles at once.

Edit to clarify, I don't think this is good, but I think people trying to make money (eg Musk) will push for these kinds of things regardless of the safety.

Driving multiple vehicles at once??? Would you take a taxi driven by a person in another country who was not paying attention full attention to the one you are in???

Nobody ever said it was a sane plan.
