What is the rate of Autopilot crashes vs driver caused?

Apparently, Tesla considers these driver caused, too, because the autopilot is not meant to be used without constant driver attention.

Tesla also considers the ones where the car randomly veers suddenly in to a guard rail as driver caused because they disable "autopilot" milliseconds before impact. Not on during impact? Not "autopilot" caused!

Problem solved! ...
