Tesla doesn't publish data nor shares it with the NHTSA, so that's very difficult to do. The only """data""" we have are videos uploaded to YouTube by a select group of Tesla owners who have access to the beta. Even ignoring the bias in videos selected for upload by the beta testers, every single city driving clip I've seen has several illegal maneuvers and many more disengagements.

That's more an indication of the clips you select to watch. I've seen half hour videos with no problems whatsoever.

We can't really draw any conclusions from self-selected video clips.

I do think the data should be openly available for all to study an analyze. If that helps competitors, then that's the price for testing in public.

There are thousands of people using the beta safely. Try actually delving into the numerous communities online discussing the beta rather than being swayed by influencers.
