Active Safety Because every Tesla car made since October 2016 is equipped with the necessary sensor suite for full self-driving, each of these cars also supports our autonomous driving development. Tesla’s vertical integration and scale provides the company with billions of miles of global real-world data that is gathered as Tesla vehicles are driven. This helps us identify edge cases, train our autonomous driving system and test how a feature would perform in the real world without activating it. Data collection is accurate and conservative compared to industry standards We collect the exact number of miles traveled by each vehicle with Autopilot active or in manual driving mode and do so without identifying specific vehicles to protect privacy. When there is a crash, we also receive an alert that is correlated to the exact vehicle state at the time. To ensure our statistics are conservative, we count any crash in which Autopilot was deactivated within 5 seconds before a crash, and we count all crashes in which the crash alert indicated an airbag or other active restraint deployed. In practice, this correlates to nearly any crash at about 12 mph (20 kph) or above, depending on the crash forces generated. On the other hand, police-reported crashes from government databases are notoriously under- reported, by some estimates as much as 50%, in large part because most fender benders are not investigated. We also do not differentiate based on the type of crash or fault, and in fact, more than 35% of all Autopilot crashes occur when the Tesla vehicle is rear-ended by another vehicle. In 2020, a Tesla vehicle with Autopilot engaged in the U.S. experienced just 0.2 accidents per million miles driven while the U.S. average was ~9x higher at 2.0 accidents per million miles driven. Even in cases where only active safety features were engaged, our vehicles had a ~4.5x lower collision rate than the U.S. average in 2020. Numbers of Vehicular Accidents per Million Miles Driven (2020) 2,0 Our commitment to safety is why all Tesla vehicles built 1,5 since October 2016 come with a suite of external cameras, additional sensors and onboard computing that enable enhanced advanced safety features like 1,0 Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Departure Warning, Forward and Side Collision Warning, Obstacle-Aware 0,5 Acceleration, blind spot warnings and more—all of which continue to improve over time through software updates. 0,0 Autopilot Engaged Active Safety Features Only No Active Safety U.S. Avg For the latest quarterly accident data related to our vehicles, please view our Vehicle Safety Report. 37
