Ex-Tesla employee casts doubt on car safety
- two_handfuls 3y agoThe key point is this: > According to Tesla's own data, at the end of 2022 US customers using Autopilot averaged one crash where the airbag deployed roughly every 5 million miles travelled. > It claims that Tesla drivers not using it averaged once every 1.5 million miles or so. However, we don’t know whether this is comparing like for like. Perhaps the different numbers are due to the kind of places where people typically engage autopilot, instead of an inherent difference between autopilot enabled or disabled.
