> You can already pay an insurance company to accept liability

If the car drives over a child in self-driving mode, will insurance company go to jail instead of you?



Nobody goes to jail, same as now unless you can prove negligence or intent, there might be significant fines and/or settlement money depending on the jurisdiction. But I’m not sure how is this difference than deaths caused by some design flaw in normal cars.
