Look at this .csv file from the NHTSA regarding safety incident reports given to the offical US Government.

There's... a lot more Tesla in here than you might expect. A whole lot more. I'm guessing "Autopilot" doesn't work quite as well as some expect.

Looks like the file came from here: https://www.nhtsa.gov/laws-regulations/standing-general-order-crash-reporting

This has been known for quite a while. The explanation that I've heard is that while Tesla's driving assistance is not my more advanced than others, Tesla drivers tend to over-rely on it, possibly due to the marketing around "autopilot".
