> Tesla drivers have the highest accident rate compared with all the brands analyzed. During the period analyzed, Tesla drivers had 23.54 accidents per 1,000 drivers. Ram (22.76) and Subaru (20.90) were the only other brands with accident rates over 20.00 per 1,000 drivers.
> It’s hard to nail down why certain brands may have higher accident rates than others. However, there are indications that certain types of vehicles attract riskier drivers than others.
More interesting would be accidents per million miles (a standard metric here) and similar. These are less biased by “who owns what kind of car” and include “who drives a bunch with them”. But of course there are many reasons to want one metric over another, and none is perfect.
> Accidents per passenger mile is not even meaningful, because you do not decrease the risk by by making more miles.
Er, right, it is meaningful because you obviously increase the risk by driving more miles. Very easy to own a car and have 0 accident risk: never drive it.
