If reactors are so safe, why can't they get commercial insurance?

Not sure which country you are referring to but they can and do have private insurance in the US.

Do you have any sources on them being unsafe? Specifically less safe than fossil fuels?

If you had read your own link, you would realize the Price-Anderson Act subsidizes insurance with tax money. There is no purely commercial insurance available without that subsidy. The risks are too great.
