Tesla Releases New FSD Safety Stats After Crossing 8.2 Billion Miles Driven

Tesla owners have now logged more than 8.2 billion miles (13.2 billion km) using Full Self-Driving (Supervised). Alongside that impressive milestone, the company has also released new North American safety statistics, offering an updated look at how vehicles perform with FSD engaged compared to manual driving.

New Tesla FSD Safety Data

According to the company, vehicles operating with FSD (Supervised) engaged in Canada and the U.S. recorded 830 major collisions across roughly 4.4 billion miles (7.1 billion km). That works out to approximately one major collision every 5.3 million miles (8.5 million km).

For Teslas driven manually with Active Safety features enabled, which it classifies as automatic emergency braking, driver drowsiness warnings, and over-the-air (OTA) software updates, but no longer Autopilot, there were more than 16,000 major collisions over about 35 billion miles (56 billion km), or one collision roughly every 2.2 million miles (3.5 million km).

Vehicles driven manually without Active Safety recorded 250 major collisions across about 214 million miles (344 million km) — approximately one every 855,000 miles (1.38 million km).

For comparison, U.S. drivers overall experienced nearly 5 million major collisions across about 3.3 trillion miles (5.3 trillion km), averaging one major collision roughly every 660,000 miles (1.06 million km).

Based on Tesla’s figures, vehicles with FSD (Supervised) engaged experience significantly fewer major collisions per mile than Teslas driven manually — and substantially fewer than the broader U.S. average.

FSD Usage is Accelerating

So far in Q1 2026, Tesla drivers have averaged more than 20 million miles (33 million km) per day using FSD (Supervised), marking a new all-time high. That equates to roughly 13,000 miles (21,000 km) per minute, a nearly 30% jump compared to just a few months ago. At this pace, Tesla’s fleet is on track to surpass 2 billion miles (3.2 billion km) of FSD driving in a single quarter for the first time.

While FSD (Supervised) remains a driver-assistance system that requires active driver supervision, the combination of record-breaking cumulative mileage and improved collision rates reinforces Tesla’s data-driven development strategy. With more than 8 billion miles now logged and quarterly usage accelerating, the company is gathering real-world data at an unprecedented scale.
