Can you imagine what it would be like with an unmanned vessel with cargo on board trading on the open seas? Here is image of Rolls-Royce unmanned Ships.

Driving a buggy on Mars should be not so difficult. No traffic lights, no drunken drivers and only one car on the whole planet.
But what will happen on Earth with an unmanned vessel if a cockroach finds its way into the computer-brain? So you will need at least a cockroach-exterminator on board. Then also the authorities will be satisfied as there is somebody they can put in jail if something goes wrong. ;D
