Tesla Fanboys have a way of hurting that there’s a difference and increasingly big one these days because Tesla is increasingly small part of the electric vehicle landscape
crashing more means nothing about the safety of the car and everything about the safety of the average driver of the car, unless the manufacturer is directly at fault for the crash somehow. This is an unfixable problem and has nothing to do with whether it was gas or electric. The variables were not isolated at all.
That would be an unsafe car in all conditions and with all drivers. Sure, user error would play a part but a reasonable person could still cause a problem.
Perhaps a better analogy will make a useful point. Is there a button for that?
Uh, EVs are safer than ICE cars
That’s incorrect.

EVs crash more. Safer cars crash less.
EVsTeslas crash more.“Some of these accidents involved Tesla’s self-driving system.”

Do you usually post links without reading them?
Because aside from random catastrophic failure, the vehicle doesn’t make you cash. The driver or Tesla’s “self-driving” does
Bad drivers and shitty “self driving” are how the cars are unsafe.
No matter how it happens if they crash more often or have worse outcomes when they do, then they’re less safe.
Is this a bit account? Should the name have clued me in?
No, that’s not the same thing. Something being used in a more dangerous way doesn’t make it more dangerous or more unsafe.
Driving a car at speed along a cliff in the dark in the rain is more unsafe than driving it slowly in an empty car park. It’s the same car.
If I included a self destruct button beside the AC controls and claimed that it was driver error that was the problem, how credible would that be?
