Why? Sounds similar to the maritime pilots, whose job is to maneuver all kinds of ships just for small stretches (usually near a specific port).

These would be (remote) car pilots, probably specialized in specific areas.

High-pressure and probably a fair amount of death

Well, I'm assuming we're in L4, so they don't have to pick up the controls of a car going high-speed or such. I can't imagine any company would sign up to have its employees regularly have the clients' lives in danger, it would be unsustainable legally and PR-wise.
