Pretty amazing to have driven six billion miles with 7x less major accidents. How many lives have been saved?

Tesla appears to have an impressive history of automatically disengaging FSD immediately before a collision, and this page is quite light on details of what they’re comparing to what, so I would take it with a large grain of salt.

It would be more meaningful if we could see the data controlled for all the factors auto insurance is priced on (driver age, zip code, credit score, vehicle age, etc.)

Does Tesla offer massively lower insurance premiums for drivers that do the majority of their driving with FSD?

I use it every single day and it is amazing! I have had my car for 6+ years now and it has only gotten better. Starting with "Navigate on Autopilot" when I originally got the car in 2019 which was pretty janky, it has only gotten better and better (with the rare regression in some cases).

As of the last year or so, I don't even have to touch the steering wheel anymore!

For how many seconds after FSD is disengaged do accidents still get attributed to FSD?
