Eventually, they won't be able to get insurance.
Why not?
Automated vehicles will be a much lesser risk for insurers than person controlled. Once automated becomes a majority of the cars on the road (with much less risk), insurers will begin to squeeze out person controlled. Insurance companies tend to not insure high-risk activities when lower risk alternatives exist.
Or they might insure them but for astronomical premiums

In such a world, driving your own vehicle would be immensely safer than it is today, since frequency of collisions would plummet. The self-driving cars would supposedly have the ability to avoid accidents caused by human drivers. Therefore risk and liability go down, no?
