The advent of self-driving cars will likely have a profound effect on the insurance industry, but what does that mean for consumers?

J.D. Power was curious about how ADAS and autonomous car technology could affect insurance premiums, and specifically, how consumers feel about the subject, so it launched one of its Power Pulse surveys to investigate. The results of that survey are interesting. For example, while 22 percent of those surveyed say they will consider a "highly automated" vehicle for their next purchase, 40 percent of those polled would switch car insurance companies if those companies offered an "autonomous discount."
