Tesla on autopilot/FSD is almost 4 times less likely to be involved in a crash than a human driven Tesla which even then is half as likely to end up in a accident compared to average car. You not liking Musk fortunelately doesn't change these facts.

So Tesla says. There is no independent verification of this data. It could all be bullshit.
Perhaps. I'm sure you'll provide me with the independent data you're basing that "Teslas are not safe" claim on
So you take Tesla's word and believe it, but ask for proof for the contrary?
You're just a hypocrite.
You made the first comment: "Teslas aren't safe", without providing proof.
And now you're calling someone a hypocrite because he asks for data of exactly what you claimed, while you're redefining your first argument as "the contrary".
So, do you have proof that Tesla's aren't safe in comparison to other cars, or is it just your opinion?
We're literally having this discussion under a video where automatic braking should have kicked in, but didn't.
But you can't base a fact on one accident. Or even multiple. What if newspapers like to write especially about Tesla accidents to generate clicks?
Teslas seemingly have a lot of accidents, but without checking the statistics and comparing it to other manufacturers you wouldn't really know if the perceived truth is a fact or not.
You're right, but the automobile industy is too opaque to do this kind of study. Maybe the insurance companies have this data, but they.are not sharing it.
In the absence of such data we have to make do with what we have. What we are seeing are a lot of examples where Tesla's are clearly doing irrational things and failing miserably. Youtube is not full of Mercedes cars failing miserably, eventhough there are a lot more Mercedes cars on the road.
The data is widely available and has been provided to you several times in this thread. You just refuse to accept it because it goes against your prior beliefs.
A person clearly can't be reasoned out of a belief they weren't reasoned into.
There is no independently available data on which car has the most crashes per km driven.
Stop spreading misinformation.
Tesla model Y scored the highest possible score on IIHS crash test as well as 5 stars on Euro NCAP
Their other models have similar results. I believe Model X is the safest SUV ever made.

Also might want to check this
EDIT2: Imagine downvoting the guy providing hard evidence and upvoting the fanatic making baseless claims backed by nothing
It's not hard to game benchmarks.
Or maybe you're so blinded by the hatred towards Musk that you can't even think straight and no evidence in the world could convince you otherwise?
You really should've checked the last link.
The link worthless. It's just Tesla advertisement.
Considering what's behind that link it sure is ironic you didn't even open it lol
