Tesla has put out a public safety scorecard for its driverless ride-hailing service. The new Robotaxi Safety Report says Tesla's Robotaxi fleet drove 3.1 million miles autonomously with no safety monitor in the car between January 22 and October 18, 2026. In that time, Tesla says, nobody was injured in a collision where a Robotaxi made first contact, no Robotaxi airbag deployed, and no pedestrian or cyclist was hit.
What is Tesla's Robotaxi Safety Report?
It's a new page on Tesla's website that tallies how its driverless Robotaxi fleet has performed on public roads (Tesla Robotaxi Safety Report). The page has a live mileage counter, which Tesla says estimates miles at the fleet's current pace, but the safety results themselves cover January 22 to October 18, 2026. Tesla says they come from the crash reports it files with the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) under the agency's Standing General Order on crash reporting. Those reports cover crashes on public roads where the automated system was engaged at any point in the 30 seconds before the crash, including many with only minor property damage.
Tesla: "0 People Injured by Robotaxi." Human drivers, it says, "could have caused 9.1 collisions with injuries in the same number of miles."
What do the numbers include and leave out?
Tesla says the report counts only driving with no safety monitor in the vehicle. NHTSA's public data also includes Robotaxi crashes with a safety monitor on board, most of them before January 22, 2026. Tesla left those crashes, and those miles, out of the report.
The definitions matter. "People Injured" counts anyone injured in a collision where the Robotaxi made first contact. Tesla describes two reported events it didn't count: one where another vehicle pushed an SUV into a Robotaxi waiting at a stop sign, and an occupant of that other vehicle went to hospital, and one where a rider claimed an injury after a Robotaxi drove over a pothole, which Tesla says its investigation didn't support. "Airbag Deployments" counts only the Robotaxi's own airbags. An airbag did go off in the other vehicle in that multi-vehicle crash.
How does Tesla compare Robotaxi with human drivers?
Tesla uses 2024 police crash data from the Texas Department of Transportation for Austin, Dallas and Houston, where the fleet drove 2.95 million miles, or 95% of its total. Over those miles, Tesla says, human drivers would have had about 9.1 injury collisions and about 4.1 in which their own airbag deployed. The injury figure includes the roughly 32% of injury crashes never reported to police, based on a 2023 NHTSA study. Tesla also notes that police reports don't record which vehicle made first contact, so the human figures count every such collision, while the Robotaxi figures count only those where the Robotaxi made first contact. Keep that difference in mind when comparing the two.
Does any of this apply in Canada?
Not directly. Tesla lists only U.S. cities for Robotaxi, none in Canada, either current or coming soon (Tesla Robotaxi Safety Report). In Canada, Tesla sells Full Self-Driving (Supervised) for $99 a month, and Tesla Canada lists Canada among the countries where it's available. The Canadian page says the features "require active driver supervision and do not make the vehicle autonomous," and that availability depends on regulatory approval. It also says Full Self-Driving (Unsupervised) would unlock "our fleet of robotaxis," but it gives no date and doesn't mention Canada.
