I remember reading a post that claimed that Tesla's safety rating was given to them because a bunch of their crashes were determined to be human error - because the self-driving feature would automatically disconnect if it faced a crash it couldn't avoid.

Fairly certain the statistic requires fsd to have been disabled for 10s before or is counted as human-caused

Maybe it does now after Musk tried to find a loophole.

The issue is a bit muddied by the fact that hitting the brake or the accelerator will deactivate it, and people will usually hit one of those if they believe that they are going to crash.
