Tesla car drivers most prone to accidents

Tesla drivers have been involved in more traffic accidents in the US this year than drivers of any other vehicle brand, according to a new study from LandingTree. The researchers took into account statements from people who want to insure their vehicles, and the statistics do not include data on accidents involving rental car drivers.

Tesla has the most accident-prone drivers of any major car brand, according to a new study.

According to insurance data analyzed by LendingTree, Tesla drivers have the highest accident rate of any car brand, with 23.5 accidents per 1,000 drivers from November 2022 to November 2023 in the US. The study of 30 car brands also found that Tesla drivers had the second highest number of driving incidents, including crashes and DUIs, speeding and citations.

The LendingTree survey found that while it was difficult to determine why some brands have higher accident rates than others, certain vehicle types 'attract riskier drivers'. Insurance companies may look at the accident rate of a brand's vehicles when deciding how risky a particular model is to insure.

The revelations come after Tesla recalled more than two million vehicles with an over-the-air software update over fears that the company's Autopilot driving assistance software doesn't do enough to prevent drivers from misusing it.

Earlier this year, the company recalled more than 360,000 cars over concerns that its self-driving technology could cause an accident.

Analysis by The Washington Post found that there have been 736 crashes involving Teslas in Autopilot mode since 2019, with 17 fatalities. The Post also previously reported that Tesla drivers were enabling Autopilot on inappropriate roads, resulting in serious and fatal crashes.

Tesla is also facing a number of legal claims over accidents related to the company's Autosteer technology.
