These are spanning from the earliest adopters, up until August of last year. Plenty of idiots using a cruise control system and trusting their lives to beta software. Not the same as the current FSD software.
Your own car insurance isn’t based on your driving skill when you had your learners permit. When Tesla takes on the liability and insurance for CyberCab, you’ll know it’s much safer than human drivers.
Notice, when talking about new features, Tesla shills love to promote how great it is and how often it saves then from problems (I can’t imagine how badly they must drive. We intervened on our grandmother after a couple of close calls). Then, when there is news about these accidents, they are so quick to blame the driver.
Also, all these problems are with the old versions, the new versions clean up everything.
I do agree with OP here about one thing - don’t take anything Tesla and Musk say about the cars’ capabilities seriously (including how that might impact stock price) until Tesla is willing to take financial responsibility for accidents. Until then, it’s all Musk bullshit.
You really want to get into reality versus marketing in this world? Very little marketing actually shows real world products and use cases in a real world environment. Heck, advertising often doesn’t even show the actual product at all.
Your McDonald’s burger is NEVER going to look like the marketing photo. You don’t want to get anywhere near that “ice cream” or “milkshake” from the ad either, mashed potatoes and glue are often used for those advertising replacements.
This doesn’t even get into things like disclaimers and product warnings, or people ignoring them.

But Tesla had a video in 2016 saying that people were only in the driver seat for legal reasons. Musk even said it was only an issue with regulators.
Oh, who to believe!

Using it exactly as it was marketed doesn’t make you an idiot.
The car prompts you every single time you enable this system to keep your eyes on the road and be prepaired to take over at any moment.
That’s the fine print. He’s talking about the marketing - the influencer videos, Musk’s tweets of those videos, Tesla’s own marketing videos, etc.

Great. Let me know when Tesla takes on the liability and insurance for CyberCab
