Summary
A study by Lending Tree found that Tesla drivers in the U.S. had the highest accident rate among all vehicle brands, followed by Ram and Subaru drivers. BMW drivers were found to have the highest rate of driving under the influence. The study also highlighted that accidents, DUIs, speeding, and other citations can lead to higher insurance rates for drivers. The findings come after a recall of Tesla's Autopilot software and raise questions about the safety of Tesla's advanced driver assistance systems.
