“Insurance is half price when Tesla self-driving is activated, because it increases safety so much [@SawyerMerritt] NEWS: U.S. insurer Lemonade has announced that it will offer a 50% rate cut for drivers of @Tesla vehicles when FSD is steering because it had data showing it reduced accidents. “A car that sees 360 degrees, never gets drowsy, and reacts in milliseconds can’t be compared to a… https://x.com/i/web/status/2013998338790535320”
“Tesla Model Y gets highest safety score ever!”
“Yes [@Tesla] Robotaxi will greatly increase safety for vulnerable road users, such as pedestrians & cyclists”
“Tesla Cybertruck is the only pickup to be awarded top safety+ [@niccruzpatane] The Tesla Cybertruck is the ONLY pickup truck (Gas or Electric) to be awarded IIHS Top Safety Pick+ in 2026 For 2026, IIHS safety rules have become even tougher.

“Tesla self-driving massively improves your quality of life and safety for the thousands of life hours you’re in a car [@jamesdouma] Frequent travel between SF and LA has been an enormous drain on my time and energy for 25 years. FSD has nearly eliminated it. This technology has significantly improved my quality of life.”
“Compared to diesel, Tesla Semi trucks have a lot more acceleration, uphill power and computer-controlled safety features like jackknifing protection, so both more fun and safer to drive”
“A Tesla with no safety monitor in the car and me sitting in the passenger seat took me all around Austin on Sunday with perfect driving”
“Tesla self-driving saves a lot of lives – the statistics are unequivocal. That doesn’t mean it’s perfect, of course. Even when we improve safety 10X, saving 90% of the million lives lost in auto accidents every year, Tesla will still get sued for the 10% who did die. The 90% [@ElliotCohe74430] Tesla FSD just saved two lives on the highway. A man walked straight into traffic in heavy fog/rain at 65+ mph. The Model 3 spotted him and swerved safely. Could’ve been fatal for both the pedestrian and my cousin driving. Insane reaction time. Grateful for @elonmusk @Tesla”
“New Tesla safety feature uploaded via over the air software update. Your car just got better while you slept.”
“Waiting for Dutch authorities and then the EU to approve. Very frustrating and hurts the safety of people in Europe, as driving with advanced Autopilot on results in four times fewer injuries! Please ask your governing authorities to accelerate making Tesla safer in Europe. [@LinkN01] It's ridiculous how they have Robotaxis in Austin without ANY driver, yet my Tesla here in Sweden is not even allowed to change lanes on the highway without me confirming with the turn signal 🤡”
“Many more Tesla self-driving V14 improvements still to come, but wide rollout of V14.1 has begun. 14.2 rolls out in a few weeks and then 14.3 a few weeks later, depending on safety testing. There is so much change that we are carefully confirming each one.”

“Did you know Tesla FSD was this good? [@grok] @callmetobiloba @elonmusk Based on Tesla's latest Vehicle Safety Report (as of April 2026), FSD (Supervised) is 7x safer than the US average human driver—1 crash every ~5-7 million miles vs. ~660k for humans, with over 9 billion miles of data. On a 1-10 scale (10 being zero risk, perfect autonomy), I'd”
“Just started Tesla Robotaxi drives in Austin with no safety monitor in the car. Congrats to the @Tesla_AI team! If you’re interested in solving real-world AI, which is likely to lead to AGI imo, join Tesla AI. Solving real-world AI for Optimus will be 100X harder than cars. [@Tsla99T] I am in a robotaxi without safety monitor”
“If you want to know what’s really safe or what’s not, just try buying insurance for it [@XFreeze] Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) is currently ~9x safer than the average human driver Because of this massive safety advantage, auto insurance providers like Lemonade are now offering Tesla owners up to a 50% discount on their per-mile premiums when FSD is engaged Choosing Tesla”
“And it only gets better from here. Tesla is still on track to launch autonomous ride hailing in Austin in June and roll out to many cities in America by the end of this year. The threshold is achieving safety far in excess of the average human driver. Ultimately, autonomous… [@WholeMarsBlog] Tesla Full Self-Driving (Supervised) 13.2.7 took me from Oakland Airport to San Francisco, crossing the Bay Bridge, and I never touched the steering wheel or pedals once. )”
“FSD Beta 10.2 rolls out Friday midnight to ~1000 owners with perfect 100/100 safety scores. Rollouts will hold for several days after that to see how it goes. If that looks good, beta will gradually begin rolling out to 99 scores & below.”

“@TheZvi Because everyone’s job is safety. It’s not some fake department with no power to assuage the concerns of outsiders. Tesla has no safety team and is the safest car. SpaceX has no safety team and has the safest rocket. Dragon is what NASA trusts most to fly astronauts.”
“The Tesla Robotaxi service area is already larger than any competitors in Austin and the Bay Area [@SawyerMerritt] Tesla’s Robotaxi service in Austin launched just 55 days ago (not 4 months), and since then the geofenced area has already expanded 4x. The in-car safety monitor has limited controls to stop the vehicle if needed, but they are not actually driving it. I’d much rather see Tesla”
“The physics of how Tesla achieved best safety of any cars ever tested. Note, when vehicle weight is taken into account, order is more like X,S, then 3, but they are all very close.”
“@OwenSparks_ Tentatively, June 22. We are being super paranoid about safety, so the date could shift. First Tesla that drives itself from factory end of line all the way to a customer house is June 28.”

“.@NHTSAgov will post final safety probability stats soon. Model 3 has a shot at being safest car ever tested.”
“@imPenny2x AI4 by itself will achieve self-driving safety levels very far above human. AI5 will make the cars almost perfect and greatly enhance Optimus. AI6 will be for Optimus and data centers. AI7/Dojo3 will be space-based AI compute.”
“@SawyerMerritt @Tesla Lidar and radar reduce safety due to sensor contention. If lidars/radars disagree with cameras, which one wins? This sensor ambiguity causes increased, not decreased, risk. That’s why Waymos can’t drive on highways. We turned off the radars in Teslas to increase safety.”
“@Kristennetten It’s not about “compensation”, but about me having enough influence over Tesla to ensure safety if we build millions of robots. If I can just get kicked out in the future by activist shareholder advisory firms who don’t even own Tesla shares themselves, I’m not comfortable with”
“Tesla piece on the physics of car safety coming soon for those interested in technical details”
“@Penenberg For sure! When doing US govt crash safety testing, the Model S roof was so strong, it broke their testing machine. https://t.co/m9Ae9mhRIC https://www.wired.com/2013/08/tesla-model-s-crash-test/”
“Reason for top rating is that active steering & braking safety features of Tesla Autopilot are turned on no cost for all cars https://t.co/HBKwAEbgc9 https://www.wired.com/story/tesla-model-3-can-survive-crash-avoid-one-too/”
“@teslaownersSV Maneuverability is important for safety”
