What gets me most is Tesla/Musk missing (and misleading) on the stats comparing autopilot to humans and reaching that 10X safer claim.. Ugh.

There are many faults with that comparative claim but most important of all, autopilot is not good enough for most tricky, city, high-intersection situations. Most Tesla owners are smart & responsible enough to not rely on it when it shouldn't be relied. They may turn it on on a longer, smoother stretch... Bingo, lots of miles that were not that risky for humans either. Secondly, it cannot even "do" what is highest workload driving (outside of auto-x/track) and that is a city. We saw the recent video. It has no understanding and it really cannot anytime soon.. So the per mile safety comparison remains a garbage statistic.
