AP is only supposed to be used on highways which are safer than other types of roads
Agreed there is not enough info to interpret the data.
But if it AP is only used on motorways and that accident rate is compared to all journeys then 50% would be a dreadful statistic. Department for Transport: "Eleven times more people die on country roads in England and Wales than on motorways"
I doubt that Tesla is just straight-out Cherry-picking the data, because when that comes out in the press it won't be defensible ... so on that basis I have made the presumption that it is somewhat "like for like". Tesla know GPS for where AP is used, so will know split for all Highway / non-Highway driving etc.
Ap has potentially saved me form one accident - braking for slowing traffic ahead just at the moment I had looked down at dashboard.
