“@indiealexh @es2120 @Tesla @woodhaus2 Safety work is done by engineering, with passive safety by body/chassis eng & active by Autopilot. Design in automotive refers to look & feel.”

“@mrgreyev @DirtyTesla @Tesla When we need strange training examples, eg half a car on highway, Tesla sim delivers. Also, accidents on Autopilot are becoming rarer, so we need more close call examples. For safety tests, Autopilot sees dummy far away. Emergency braking only needed for distracted drivers.”

“@LanceUlanoff Key technical point is that the polar moment of inertia (concentration of mass around center) of a Tesla, to the extent of our knowledge, is better than any other production car. This positively affects safety, handling & driving feel. Extremely important metric.”
“@anandrajk @lexiheft @Tesla That issue is better in latest Autopilot software rolling out now & fully fixed in August update as part of our long-awaited Tesla Version 9. To date, Autopilot resources have rightly focused entirely on safety. With V9, we will begin to enable full self-driving features.”
“@TeslaGong @_KarenHao @OpenAI I have no control & only very limited insight into OpenAI. Confidence in Dario for safety is not high.”
“@chick_in_kiev @evepeyser @broderick Pravda was incorporated a year ago. Also, Tesla factory safety has improved every year & is now better than industry avg. Misleading articles refer to Tesla being worse than avg in 2015 when we were just figuring things out.”
“@kulpability @lexfridman @Tesla Intersections with complex traffic lights & shopping mall parking lots are the two biggest software challenges. Developer branch already mostly works in these scenarios, but massive effort required to get to 99.9999% safety.”
“@TeslaTrip @arctechinc We need to complete internal QA testing for safety, which will hopefully be done in about 4 weeks”
“@mikeyfranklin @dmatkins137 @ShayneRarma @NASA More “Reveal” bs. Tesla is overseen by Cal/OSHA, most stringent labor safety org in US, & they’ve never found us to misrepresent. On other hand, Ford, Chrysler & GM (UAW) have repeatedly been found to fake safety numbers. Strangely, that info is missing from Reveal article …”

“@rrosenbl @ElectrekCo @FredericLambert @Tesla Have been meaning to get around to talking to him. Some of his criticisms are valid, but, on the higher body/chassis weight front, he wasn’t fully appreciating that we were going for much higher crash safety levels than other cars.”
“Model S limits torque if brake & accel simul pressed. Going to zero torque with brake press would be a safety hazard.”
