Statistical analysis fails for small samples. In a single case, it is never possible to determine what would have happened if there was a human controlling the wheel instead of the autonomous system. With either of those, the accidents will happen, even if rarely. In case of a human controlling the wheel, the punishment meted out to the human acts as a signal to that human and others that they have to be more careful in how they control the vehicle. Therefore, in case of any accident by Tesla's autonomous system, Tesla(or any other autonomous control providing company) should be made to shoulder the blame. So that they are not only prodded to make their systems more robust, but also prodded to design the system to ask for human intervention in case it senses it cannot make a good judgement in the conditions.
