You mis-parsed his statement. It's ((self-driving car) owners), not (self-driving (car owners)).

I don't think that was mis-parsed - I think that JabavuAdams is (rightfully ?) cynical that the insurance companies will lower prices.

Rather, they will make the current price the standard for (self-driving cars), and increase the price for (human-driven cars), thereby ensuring more money for themselves.

Ah, then I misunderstood JabavuAdams's post. That's a good point.
