Insurance doesn't work that way. Liability isn't an ephemeral concept, it's the chance of a claim X the amount of a claim, pooled in a group of buyers with differing risks. The relative cost of insurance compared to an autonomous vehicle should increase, but not the dollar amount.

Car accidents kill people. The amount of those claims is not fixed and will increase when every fatality can lead to a wrongful death civil case.
