Because the alternative isn't bug-free driving -- it's a human being. Who maybe didn't sleep last night, who might have a heart attack while their foot is on the accelerator, who might pull over and try to sexually assault you.
You don't need to "place confidence in these complex software systems" -- you just need to look at their safety stats vs e.g. regular Uber. It's not a matter of trust; it's literally just a matter of statistics, and choosing the less risky option.
