Tesla Autopilot Outperforms Human Drivers and Rivals in Latest Safety Data
Tesla’s 2025 safety report shows that cars using Autopilot recorded one crash for every 6.69 million miles driven in Q2 2025. This works out to 0.15 crashes per million miles. For comparison, human drivers in the United States generally crash about 1.42 times per million miles, and even Teslas without Autopilot record a higher 1.04 crashes per million miles. Industry-leading autonomous rival Waymo averages around 0.21 crashes per million miles.
This puts Tesla Autopilot at nearly ten times safer than the typical US driver, and even substantially ahead of competing automated driving systems. While safety results vary by quarter, new hardware, and regulatory scrutiny, the current data highlight significant advances in real-world vehicle autonomy
Tesla vehicles have also seen safety improvements even without Autopilot, but the combination of real-world data, active safety features, and continuous software updates helps push Autopilot’s performance further ahead of average drivers. The data are sourced from Tesla’s own reporting, with national averages from NHTSA and FHWA statistics for reference.
These findings underline the rapid progress in autonomous driving technology and give new context for regulatory debates on road safety and driverless car adoption.

Tesla Autopilot Surpasses Human Drivers and Competitors in Latest Safety Report
Tesla’s 2025 safety data reveals that Autopilot-equipped vehicles experienced just one crash every 6.69 million miles in Q2 2025—about 0.15 crashes per million miles. In contrast, human drivers in the US average 1.42 crashes per million miles, while Teslas without Autopilot see 1.04 crashes per million miles. Autonomous driving leader Waymo records around 0.21 crashes per million miles.
This means Tesla Autopilot is nearly 10 times safer than the average US driver and outperforms major autonomous systems. Though results fluctuate based on hardware updates and regulations, the data showcases remarkable advances in real-world vehicle autonomy.
Even Teslas without Autopilot have improved safety, but the blend of real-time data, active safety tech, and continuous software updates keeps Autopilot ahead. The data comes from Tesla’s reports, compared with national stats from NHTSA and FHWA.
These insights highlight rapid progress in self-driving tech and add important perspective to ongoing regulatory discussions around autonomous vehicle safety and adoption.

Tesla Hit with $243M Verdict Over 2019 Autopilot Crash — Jury Finds Company Partially Liable
In a landmark legal decision, Tesla Inc. has been ordered to pay $243 million after a federal jury ruled the automaker 33% liable for a fatal 2019 crash in Florida involving its Autopilot driver-assistance system.
The case marks one of the largest courtroom losses for Tesla to date, as scrutiny around the safety and marketing of its autonomous features continues to intensify.
🧾 Case Overview:
Incident Date: 2019
Location: Florida Keys
Vehicle: Tesla Model S
Driver: George McGee
Victims:
Naibel Benavides Leon (deceased)
Dillon Angulo (seriously injured)
The crash occurred when McGee’s Tesla failed to stop at a T-intersection and collided with a stationary Chevrolet Tahoe. The jury ruled the driver 67% responsible and Tesla 33% liable for the fatal collision.
💵 Verdict Breakdown:
Total damages: $243 million
Compensatory damages: $42.5 million
Punitive damages: $200 million
🧑⚖️ Key Testimonies & Findings:
George McGee, the driver, admitted to being distracted while searching for his phone and claimed to have trusted Autopilot to assist him.
Tesla’s engineers and legal team argued that Autopilot requires driver oversight at all times, and the manual explicitly warns users not to rely on it for full autonomy.
Vehicle data showed McGee manually accelerated the car to 17 mph above the speed limit just before the crash.
Tesla emphasized that Autopilot functioned as intended and there were no known defects.
⚖️ Legal Impact:
This verdict is a setback for Tesla, which had previously won similar lawsuits in California and settled others confidentially. The company's legal team has vowed to appeal the decision, stating:
“Today’s verdict is wrong and only sets back automotive safety. We plan to appeal due to substantial legal errors and trial irregularities.”
🗣️ Public Reaction:
Lead attorney Brett Schreiber stated the ruling holds Tesla accountable for "prioritizing hype over human life" and called the judgment “justice” for the victims.
The case also renews concerns about the real-world safety of semi-autonomous features and how they're marketed to consumers.
🔎 What’s Next?
Expect more lawsuits and regulatory scrutiny over Autopilot and Full Self-Driving (FSD) claims.
This could influence the future of autonomous driving regulations.
Tesla’s appeal may draw further legal attention and affect investor sentiment.
📊 Tesla Legal Scorecard:
✅ Wins in California
🔒 Multiple confidential settlements
❌ Now facing its first major courtroom loss over Autopilot
