This is a very important topic that I am surprised does not receive enough coverage. Thank you for bringing it up.
It will be particularly interesting if accident blame is placed on the 'dumb cars', and then insurance companies do a 180 and charge MORE for 'dumb cars' operated by humans. Once they put this information in their pricing models, I assume its 'stuck' in there until the next major NTSB report is published.
As complacency sets in over a couple months & years, the accident rates will likely swing from "dumb" human operated machines back to "Level 4 Highly Intelligent Teslas/UBERS/Argo AI", and that market might get a real shock when the pendulum comes back their way!
