Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) feature has logged over 5.3 billion miles with only 55 recorded traffic violations, suggesting a significant breakthrough in safety.
Despite this, regulators such as the NHTSA have opened new safety investigations into the technology.
For every critic raising concerns about its limitations, there are thousands of owners putting millions of miles on the system, and the data suggests it’s getting safer faster than most people realize.
The numbers behind FSD's safety record are compelling, with some estimates suggesting it may be up to 200 times safer than human drivers.
