> Karl Brauer said in the report. “A focused, alert driver, traveling at a legal or prudent speed, without being under the influence of drugs or alcohol, is the most likely to arrive safely regardless of the vehicle they’re driving.”

I wonder what the rates are like for specific models from other brands that are associated with morons. G-wagons, M3s etc etc

Or perhaps the large amount of power available instantly makes it easier to get into dangerous situations than an equivalent to combustion engine car. And as the largest EV brand with the most data available… they really stand out.


Or it's the drivers are not "focused, alert", because of the auto-pilot.


Or that its very difficult to be alert when using Teslas FSD?
