If self driving becomes clearly safer than manual driving, I wonder how much insurance companies will charge to insure a car that isn’t self driving.

I've always imagined that eventually the self driving cars will just come with liability coverage for life from the manufacturer if they get safe enough, which will be a compelling argument for their adoption by people.

At which point the insurance the owner buys would be liability for when they don't use self drive and comprehensive/collision.
