Sensor data will have an interesting effect on insurance claims. There&#x27;s always an unbiased witness who may not have the full information, but has much more than anyone else.<p>What&#x27;s &quot;unbiased&quot; information?  For example if the user (driver) had the wrong model of the new cruise control she may have done what she considered correct.  And if she didn&#x27;t understand, was it her problem for lack of consulting the manual in detail, or the company&#x27;s for not explaining it properly?<p>&gt; That&#x27;s just the interim period before full autonomy. Does anyone know how insurance claims are handled in collisions between fully autonomous cars?<p>As soon as full autonomy is better than humans, the insurance companies will really push for it.  In this context it makes sense for the liability to go with the manufacturer &#x2F; software developer in the case of an unmodified vehicle, both because it aligns incentives correctly and because any patch can be immediately rolled out to the entire fleet.<p>(I presume individuals won&#x27;t buy cars at all)
