Tesla Reports Record Autopilot Safety Data After Year-Long Hiatus

New data shows significant improvement in Autopilot safety, but concerns about transparency and methodology remain.

Tesla's Q1 2024 data shows one crash per 7.63 million miles with Autopilot, a 47% improvement year-over-year.
Non-Autopilot driving saw an increase in crash rates, with one crash per 955,000 miles driven.
Tesla's safety report compares its data to the 2022 U.S. average of one crash per 670,000 miles.
Critics point out that Autopilot is mainly used on highways, making direct comparisons difficult.
Tesla faces ongoing scrutiny from regulators and lawsuits related to Autopilot safety and marketing claims.
