    That’s incorrect.

    EVs crash more. Safer cars crash less.

      EVs Teslas crash more.

      “Some of these accidents involved Tesla’s self-driving system.”

      crashing more means nothing about the safety of the car and everything about the safety of the average driver of the car, unless the manufacturer is directly at fault for the crash somehow. This is an unfixable problem and has nothing to do with whether it was gas or electric. The variables were not isolated at all.
