Probably every vehicle has some number of stupid deaths. I assume you don't fly because Boeing fucked up. That's way more than 83 people if just one plane crashes.
It's just way cooler to shit on Tesla though. Very trendy. Very cool.
0.052% (232 / 443,956) fire rate.
Comparison to Industry Average: For context, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports an average fire rate of 1.5 crashes per million miles for all vehicles. Tesla’s fire rate of 0.052% (based on the reported 232 fires) is significantly lower than this industry average.
But it's not very cool to do research that way shrug
You seem awfully upset that people are criticizing Tesla. Are you okay?
Naw I already said Tesla sucks all through the thread. I'm sad someone says "Tesla accident" and you all swarm to it to gloat like your kid finally graduated special Ed. No shit accidents happen, but wheres the same offense when any other brand has a fuck up? It's nowhere because smarmy lemurs are only watching tesla news.
What's Tesla’s fire rate per million miles?
And an 'average fire rate of 1.5 crashes per million miles' is unclear.
What's the distinction between crashes and fires here? Is like to make sense of the stats.
Let me google that for you:
