23.54 crashes per 1,000 drivers in the past year.

If someone cared about actually comparing this, they'd normalize for the number of miles driven, instead of cherry-picking something so it sounds bad.

This is disengenuous.

Teslas aren't exactly long-range rural cars. Correcting for mileage would only increase the crash rates.

However, being city cars, they probably have high operational hours.

Yeah good point, the type of miles probably matters a lot.
