Nobody knows. Tesla does not disclose the information needed to make a proper apples to apples comparison to the public or researchers. They do not disclose the number of miles or the number of accidents, let alone the conditions or circumstances that would be needed to account for bias or confounding variables and determine the corresponding comparable metric. Of the reports they make to NHTSA [1] which are public by default, they declare the vast majority of contained information as confidential business information and their lawyers force NHTSA redact it. A company kills a bunch of people and nobody is allowed to know how safe it is because that is confidential. That alone should worry you. But, that is not all. Tesla does not know either. If you look at the reports you will see that of the over 1,000 crashes, Tesla declined to investigate to determine if anybody was injured in ~95% of cases. Of the reported confirmed fatalities, Tesla telemetry missed the majority of them. I will say that again, they can not even detect the majority of fatalities while their system is active. Their data collection procedures are so grossly inadequate that you can not even determine the upper bound on the fatality rate, let alone more nuanced safety measures. To quote the safety investigation mentioned in the article [2]: "Tesla largely receives data for crashes only with pyrotechnic deployment, which are a minority of police reported crashes. A review of NHTSA’s 2021 FARS and Crash Report Sampling System (CRSS) finds that only 18 percent of police-reported crashes include airbag deployments." Tesla bases their safety statistics on data collection conditions that under-report actual crash rates by a factor of 500% on average. The statistics Tesla releases do not even attempt to account for the glaring discrepancies and under-reporting that is clearly visible in their fatality reports and data collection conditions and instead intentionally state the under-reporting that benefits them as simple fact. They are intentionally overstating product safety based on data that any competent professional knows is faulty and inadequate to push product. That level of misconduct is criminal.
