Tesla vehicles are not safe: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/06/10/tesla-autopilot-crashes-elon-musk/

These don't test self driving features, which are the source of the problem. FSR and Autopilot are unsafe according to NHTSA data.
Euro NCAP test lane keeping, auto braking etc, and the 2022 Model Y scored 98%, the highest ever.
