Say what you will about Tesla, but it’s good at a lot of things. Take its robotaxi fleet in Austin, Texas, which is apparently good at crashing into things.

Who knows how many crashes were prevented by the in-car supervisors making sure the cars didn’t do anything too screwy? But, in any case, Tesla’s current robotaxi crash rate is about two times as high as Waymo’s, according to Electrek. You will note, though, that all of these crashes took place after the in-car supervisors were moved to the driver’s seat.
