There's zero chance that they know it's safer per mile than humans. Incidents are so far in between you'd need way more more than what the paltry Tesla fleet is collecting before crash per mile could be accounted for with any meaningful accuracy

Tesla have been driven over a billion miles, seems like plenty to get a good estimate.

There are 11 fatality per billion miles driven, and that includes bikes and such, car do even better.

So no "over a billion" isn't plenty.

Are they safer? Possibly. Statistics show they are safer? That's bollocks. There's not enough data to say yet.
