> Even when you cause an accident, you don't pay. You do pay a deductible in addition to your almost guaranteed substantial rate increase > What is the process and what happens?

Even in a normal crash, you contact your own insurance company and they will try to see if they can push liability to someone else, usually the other party or parties in the crash. Drive Pilot just adds another party they can attempt to push liability to. They will negotiate on your (really their) behalf and try to assign blame. In cases where your insurance and Mercedes disagree then it would likely go to court. > We're already paying so what practical difference does it make to the owner of that car? Even if you assume $0 deductible and $0 increase, the assumption of liability is a very strong signal that Mercedes is very confident in the system. You can also peruse the regulation that they are licensed under which provides a lot of information: https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/vehicle-industry-services/autonomous-vehicles/autonomous-vehicle-deployment-program/ https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/vehicle-industry-services/auto... https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/news-and-media/california-dmv-approves-mercedes-benz-automated-driving-system-for-certain-highways-and-conditions/ https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/news-and-media/california-dmv-...
