      Yeah, legislation and requirements for a self driving car to be allowed on the road will have to be updated. But an automated car can’t drink and drive, or make the intentional decision to run someone over because they hate them. I don’t see how vehicular homicide would apply.

      If somebody reprograms a car to murder someone, they are at fault. In all other cases - accidents - the insurance would have to shift from the driver to the car creator.
