Sample pricing for BMW self-driving add-on feature:

98% accuracy in obstacle avoidance - $299/mo.
85% accuracy in obstacle avoidance - $199/mo.
75% accuracy in obstacle avoidance (lowest legal limit!) - $99/mo.

disclaimer: BMW cannot guarantee 100% accuracy in accuracy rates

Another possibility.

Unlimited* crash avoidance instances - $299.99/mo

10 crash avoidance instances - $199.99/mo

5 crash avoidance instances - $99.99/mo

*crash avoidance may be limited during peak hours and times of congestion. After 12 crash avoidance instances, feature may be disabled without notice due to abuse of the system. All sales are final and minimum 5 year contract required. Price may increase at any time without notice
