I know that seems a little tin foil hat-ish...but you have to remember...They are in business to make money. Insurance is basically legalized gambling, only you as the payee ALWAYS loose.

If we really want safe "drivers" then self driving cars need to become a thing on public roads. Take the human driver out of the equation and you'll be amazed at how well traffic will flow...
Not tin foil hat, just have to look at all the scams ISP and phone companies pull. Western business practices are terribly short sighted right now, we will be digging ourselves out of this hole for my entire lifetime, I just hope the vast majority recognizes the hole before I have kids.
