Driving is the most complex and demanding thing the median US resident does on a regular basis.
Some jobs, like playing sports professionally, surgery, courtroom lawyer, high-end chef are probably also demanding, I’ve never done any of those, but they seem like good examples of needing to monitor all sorts of different things and adjust to changes. No comment on how cognitively taxing they are compared to driving.
