It's too bad they don't list competitor cars. Without such a comparison, this list really doesn't mean anything except "some people die in and around cars." How is one to know if 41 fatalities is an urgent issue, or the safest among the competing car models? What are the stats for say, Nissan Leaf or BMW i3? And of course, the numbers should be taken in context with how many of each model is on the road, and also how many accidents were not fatal. How about an estimate of how many of them suffered no accident at all?
The number increasing by year is surely more to do with more people driving Teslas each year, so that would be expected. Without correlating data, I can only take this to mean Tesla's sales increase yearly. That's something the stock holders can be happy about, although not a very nice way to measure sales success.
It seems the only intent of this site is to discredit Tesla. The lack of comparative data is highly suspicious.
