I read a similar article in the Times this morning. I kept looking for the stat of how many legacy vehicles were involved in accidents during the same time period. The article I read closed with the NTSB being quoted that the Tesla numbers were skewed since there are more of them on the road than other semi-autonomous vehicle. But no mention of the ratio of semi-autonomous vs legacy vehicle. While I believe Elon is correct (that the semi-autonomous is safer than legacy), it'd sure be nice to see an independent agency confirm those industry claims rather than attach the technology. Regardless of if Wamo, Tesla or someone else is first to solve the problem I think we can all agree industry is going to attempt to solve they issue from today thru the day it's solved. Autonomous driving vehicles can't be put back into the toothpaste tube. Just my 2cents.
