Honestly speaking, I think this is more in between fatigue and distracted driving. Not a DUI.

If he were passed out rather than asleep and letting the Tesla drive for him should he be charged with impaired driving?
There is no difference between the two scenarios. Note I am arguing what should be the consequence rather than what the law states.
New Jersey and Arizona have fatigued driving statues that are similar to DUIs.
