Year 2026: autonomous drivers have 80% fewer accidents per million miles than human drivers.
Bug fix to improve that to 90% and prevent an additional 500,000 casualties per year must wait until 2028 for NHTSA certification.

Does it mean autopilot without any driver in the car that intensives like in TFA? Because this is the shit stats ignore the cases where the autopilot was saved from 5 crashes in 5 minutes by it's driver, in this case you could say the combo of driver+auto-co-plot is safer , also you should compare same cars and same roads , self driving software gives up on harder conditions so this inflates your stats. TL:DR Tesla should also show the disengagements numbers so we can add those in the stats, some of those would have been crashes if the driver did not intervene.
