    The research into Tesla’s safety issues is ongoing and doesn’t paint a particularly coherent picture. Indeed, a similarly publicized report published in August by vehicle history information vendor EpicVIN claimed that, of all the car brands, Tesla drivers were least likely to suffer fatal injuries. If both that report and the iSeeCars report are to be believed, it would imply that Teslas drivers are most likely to be involved in fatal crashes but least likely to be killed in those crashes.

    I have highlighted the relevant sentece, it is a little bit confusing.

      Not really. It’s stating that Tesla accidents kill more people, just not the drivers of the Tesla.

      Unrelated factoid: Tesla drivers are the highest demographic to self identify as not having survivor’s guilt.
