According to Sawyer Merritt, Tesla reported in Q3 2025 that vehicles using Autopilot technology experienced one crash every 6.36 million miles, compared to one crash every 993,000 miles for those without Autopilot. For context, the most recent NHTSA and FHWA data from 2023 shows an average crash every 702,000 miles in the US. These results demonstrate that Tesla's AI-powered Autopilot system significantly reduces crash frequency compared to both manual driving and the national average, highlighting the advanced safety benefits of AI integration in autonomous vehicle technology and its potential to reshape the automotive industry by improving road safety and reducing insurance costs (Source: Sawyer Merritt, Twitter; NHTSA; FHWA).
