Disclaimer again: These are solely my own opinions. > "I’m curious what you thought when you came across that part of the article." Several things: 1. I think Tesla vehicles are very safe. 2. I think there are several reasons NHTSA does not rank vehicles on safety. Also NHTSA specifically does not allow companies to claim a specific rank using NHTSA data. 3. I think not all real world factors may be accounted for in tests. 4. I think tests get harder over time, so Tesla is well prepared for future tests. 5. I think Tesla has a history of bending the rules in their press releases, including making other safety claims that are not supported by the agencies they quote. 6. I think with autonomous vehicles we will be able to log safety incidents per user-mile in various conditions and have really comparable data - and it's a shame we don't already have that. 7. The score mentioned is based on tests, not real world data. Without real world data, you can't say whether a vehicle is actually safe or not. I can't speak for NHTSA, but I feel that is their point of view.
