The FUD is _insane_ with Tesla.

If it's not true, Tesla should be overjoyed to share raw data (not processed through their marketing department) then.

  I don’t think they even really have a traditional marketing department. The beta release notes are probably something you should check out. Latest: Improved object detection network architecture for non-VRUs (e.g. cars, trucks, buses). 7% higher recall. 16% lower depth error, and 21% lower velocity error for crossing vehicles. New visibility network with 18.5% less mean relative error. New general static object network with 17% precision improvements in high curvature and nighttime cases. Improved stopping position at unprotected left turns while yielding to oncoming objects, using object predictions beyond the crossing point. Allow more room for longitudinal alignment during merges by incorporating modeling of merge region end. Improved comfort when offsetting for objects that are cutting out of your lane.

    Percentages are quite useless without the absolute numbers as a reference...

    They _absolutely_ have a marketing department, PR whatever you want to call it. Those numbers don't look useful for judging safety. How would one compare those against anything else?

So why doesn't Tesla share raw data with the public, or regulators? I cannot think of better PR for Tesla, and autonomous driving in general.

  They do and it is easily googled. https://www.tesla.com/VehicleSafetyReport https://www.tesla.com/VehicleSafetyReport

    That's only Autopilot and only gives one top line number per quarter, and comes after so much marketing fluff that it's pretty clear what department is generating it.
