Whether it's "proven" to do so probably depends on what kind of proof you're looking for.

But there are plenty of news articles and youtube videos that show it doing ridiculous unsafe things (including running into a truck that was driving perpendicular to the road). So I highly doubt it's as good as a normal driver, in fact I'd be shocked if it is.

There are also plenty of videos of human drivers doing absurd things, so this is hardly an argument.

All that matters is whether a random Tesla that you see on the street is more likely to crash into you than a different car. I know that Tesla has published there own statistics which say that it isn't, but I would be very interested in seeing an independent study about this.
