$3,000 is nothing. Medical costs for a major injury are FAR higher than almost any car repair. Spending $100K in the first day is not all that hard to do.

A large percentage of people would be better off with self driving cars.

Is that a valid topic for EVDL? I'm sure the Tesla Fanboys love it more than indoor plumbing, but what do insurance companies say? Do they give a rate reduction for self driving cars? Personally, I'm too cheap to be on the bleeding edge and even then I would postpone it and till the death rate gets down, but the fact is I'm managing a 0% death rate so far (knock on wood) so it'llbe hard to beat that, and I've always had a thing about controlling my own destiny.
