I think that's the wrong question. The right question is "how much better is it than human drivers?" When you get up to 2x better, there will be _only_ 20,000 fatal Tesla crashes compared to 40,000 human ones a year in the US. It's a very low bar.
When Tesla is 2x better, we'd be reckless not to use it immediately.
- mempko 6y agoExcept Tesla kills 3x more of it's drivers than competitor cars. https://medium.com/@MidwesternHedgi/teslas-driver-fatality-rate-is-more-than-triple-that-of-luxury-cars-and-likely-even-higher-433670ddde17 https://medium.com/@MidwesternHedgi/teslas-driver-fatality-r... So depends on your measure. If you mean "on average" then yes. But it seems Tesla has a long way to go in other safety measures first.
