I have an oil leak and front passenger side wheel needs new wheel bearing. Is it safe to drive this van for a 6 hour one way road trip?

The bearing is a problem as on an extended drive it can over heat and fail, this could cause an accident or at best just leave you stranded on the side of the road, I would not be taking the chance on driving it with the suspect bearing.
