content: I can see the insurance lobby fighting hard to keep these off the road.  It's not like insurance companies are running out of things to insure. Besides, if Volvo follows through on this, they will definitely just insure every driverless car and include the premium in the purchase price. I wonder how it will affect free and open source software. Cars are being more and more computerized, and now they are becoming driverless. And, of course, neither manufacturers nor governments even consider the question, "Would it be possible to let people actually study and modify this software?"
