Well if you can believe Tesla's numbers, autopilot is still safer than manual. Though really I think the criteria for safety should be more strict than just being somewhat safer. Other car makers won't take autopilot beyond self-park for good reason. It's not that Tesla's technology is so much better, other makers are just more responsible about liability.
Tesla is using stats to lie. Autopilot can only be used on highways. If you just look at crash rate on highways, it’s very close to autopilot’s rate. And ideally it should be compared to other assistive technologies.
Narrator: you cannot believe Tesla's numbers.
Mercedes offers level 3, which is fully hands off, and they take full responsibility for accidents that happen while the system is engaged. Ford and GM also have systems that are on par with Tesla and likely have better safety measures.
Definitely agree with this. Tesla just cuts corners.
