Extensive analysis of Tesla and NHTSA crash reporting (some by NHTSA themselves) shows that autopilot and fsd do not have significantly better safety outcomes than manual drivers or drivers aided by other non-tesla assistance systems.
This NHTSA report is pretty damning about Tesla's cavalier attitude towards the design of safe systems.
