Supposing full self driving becomes available, surely this will become available in the cars consumers purchase.

Furthermore, I don't agree with this articles assertion that the existence of robotaxis would lead to an increase on insurance premiums.

It's not that robotaxis will logically lead to higher premiums. It's that lobbying for higher insurance premiums will be a primary way for robotaxi companies to increase market share.
