      They use the term “rate,” which would account for absolute numbers. So just because Tesla sells more EVs wouldn’t account for it.

          The same stats run similar for other EV but nobody cares.

          Where are you getting that number? The report just said Tesla had the highest accident rate of all brands.

              Okay, so Tesla had the highest rate, but switching power train types seems problematic. It didn’t really say if other EVs are close to Tesla’s accident rates, or am I missing something?

                  In any case, I think we can dispel the myth that Tesla is one of the safest cars. They have the worst accident rates among all brands and their driving assist features either can’t keep idiots from making bad decisions or, worse, even amplify the dangerous effects that idiots create while driving.
