> The number of autopilot -related deaths and crashes seems high considering how few Teslas are on the road.

That’s just an artifact of increased media coverage.

200k US sales as of July, that's correct. They're current production rate is about 107k/year, slightly more than 1% of General Motors 10M/year.
