    Your statistical analysis is so bad that it’s not even wrong. It’s just a pile of disparate data strung together with false assumptions.

    So all of those Teslas were sold in America? And all 4.5 million of those Teslas have Autopilot? And they’re in Autopilot mode 100% of the time?

      You forgot the most important issue: Tesla drivers are not representative of the average driver. They have more money and more education. They live in places with nicer weather. These all contribute to lower crash rates without self driving. I bet high end Mercedes have lower crash rates too, because people don’t defer maintenance and then drive them crazily in the snow.

      Compare apples to apples and I bet Teslas have average crash rates for luxury cars.
