Is it possible that there's a large overlap between idiots who are bad at driving and the type of people who buy Teslas?

Yep, and the fact that a ton of people who get these cars legit think they will drive themselves...

Does this statistic account for actual sales? I wonder if there are so many accidents because there are so many. I'm not a fanboy or anything. I am just curious how this was calculated.

Lol you really think there are more tesla on the road than Toyota or Ford?

It all depends on where you live. So yea. More extensive research would be nice.

It says per 1000 drivers

Correct. But how many thousands are there? And in relation to what percentage of all Teslas compared to all other brands with similar models. Do I believe it? Absolutely. Is it a good statistic? It's a good start.
