    Insurance cannot bring a dead person back to life. It can give the heirs money, but that is not the same. On the surface humans will need to cross the roads and we don’t know how to do that safely. In tunnels humans will never need to cross these vehicles and thus it is much easier to not kill someone.

      Idk man, a tram ain’t killing hundreds of people either

      And no insurance will cover something that will get destroyed completely in a minor accident.

        Trams have drivers to hit the emergency stop.

        You can get insurance to cover whatever you want. Normally it isn’t cost effective to get insurance for small losses from a minor accident, but you can get it if you really want (you will need to see a specialty provider)

          Bro no fucking insurance in the world covers nuclear power plants or similar things, they are “insured” by the country they are in.

          There are autonomous trams and there is no problem in having a automatic system hit the stop either…

            There are no automous trams. There are several automous metro systems.

            you can get insurance for anything. That doesn’t mean anyone does. For nuclear they don’t find it cost effective soethey don’t.
