SAN FRANCISCO — US leading electrical automaker Tesla Thursday published its first quarterly vehicle safety report that said drivers on autopilot are safer than average from traffic accidents.
Tesla defended the safety of its vehicles in autopilot mode in the quarterly report, citing figures from the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration showing one automobile crash for every 492,000 miles (about 791,797 km) driven across the United States.
In contrast, Tesla registered one accident or crash-like event for every 3.34 million miles driven while the autopilot is engaged, Tesla said in the report.
The Palo Alto, California-based company also said it recorded only one accident or crash-like event for every 1.92 million miles driven without autopilot, suggesting that Tesla's cars are involved in far fewer accidents than average.
Tesla has been questioned for the safety of its cars running in autopilot mode following a few deadly crashes involving its electrical vehicles earlier this year.
The driver was slightly injured and her car's autopilot was reportedly engaged at the time of the incident.
"It performs well with the powerful twin engines and modern avionics with four-axis autopilot, which ensures its stability and flexibility ," said Vincent Dufour, vice president of Airbus Helicopters China.
Meanwhile, the test road for autopilot driving in the Shanghai FTZ has been extended to more than 500 kilometers.
While calling for intensified efforts to deal with cases involving core technologies, such as artificial intelligence, big data, cloud computing, integrated circuit and critical software, the plan also requires judges to pay closer attention to disputes concerning digital health and autopilot.
"The plan highlights strong legal support for protecting intellectual property rights in these technology-related fields, and it also urges courts to do more research on new problems regarding digital health and autopilot to participate in relevant regulation formulation," Ren Xuefeng, vice-president of the high court, said while unveiling the plan at the forum.
A safe, independent and controllable industrial ecosystem has been built, covering car chips, autopilot systems, interior design and new material precision finishing.
For example, the revision adds to the catalog key raw materials like high-purity electron-grade hydrofluoric acid, polyvinyl polyamine and high-performance fiber, key components and spare parts such as high-pressure vacuum components, special valves and special glasses, key equipment such as integrated circuit test equipment, high-end manufacturing equipment and hardware related to L3/L4/L5 autopilot.
The VLCC, called New Journey, has the functions of assisted autopilot navigation, intelligent liquid cargo management, integrated energy efficiency management, equipment operation and maintenance, and communication between ship and shore.
He added that its high-speed Navigate on Autopilot, or NOA, covers 26 cities, including Beijing.
Statistics show that the company accounted for over 30 percent of chips enabling navigate on autopilot in China's passenger vehicle market, second only to Nvidia, in the first half of the year.
It can be flown manually or on autopilot mode.
On Nov 28 last year, three buses equipped with Level-4 autopilot technologies hit the road in the district's Chongqing Cloud Valley Yongchuan Big Data Industrial Park, marking the first autonomous bus route in the country put into commercial operation.
So far, Tesla's Autopilot and Full Self-Driving are both considered Level 2 systems.
Five types of products covering three production lines－motor drives, thermal management and auxiliary or autopilot systems－have completed testing and gone into mass production.
The vehicles are equipped with partially automated driver-assist features such as adaptive cruise control and "Autopilot," which allows them to automatically brake and steer within lanes.
The probe is the latest in a string of enforcement efforts by the agency that include Autopilot and "Full Self-Driving" software.
In one of the complaints, a Tesla owner from Austin, Texas, reported that a Model Y on Autopilot braked repeatedly for no reason on two-lane roads and freeways.
In August, NHTSA announced a probe of Tesla on Autopilot failing to stop for emergency vehicles parked on roadways.
US safety regulators are looking into a complaint about the safety of "Full Self-Driving", and they also are investigating why Tesla's operating on a less sophisticated partially automated system called "Autopilot" have repeatedly crashed into parked emergency vehicles.
Tesla, the first to offer ADAS features, calls its systems Autopilot and Full Self Driving while admitting that "no Tesla cars are fully autonomous today and require active driver supervision".
Some carmakers are overstating their achievements in driving-assist functions by using words such as "auto" in their driving-assist systems, such as Tesla's Autopilot.
In the United States, auto safety regulators have started a formal safety probe into Tesla's Autopilot after a series of crashes involving Tesla models and emergency vehicles.
The probe will take in 765,000 vehicles with Autopilot built since 2014.
The 11 crashes included four this year and so the administration has opened a preliminary evaluation of Autopilot in 2014-21 Tesla Models Y, X, S, and 3.
The crashes involved vehicles "all confirmed to have been engaged in either Autopilot or Traffic Aware Cruise Control", the administration said.
The NHTSA, which closed an earlier investigation into Autopilot in 2017 without taking any action, has come under fire for failing to ensure the safety of the system that handles some driving tasks and allows drivers to keep their hands off the wheel for extended periods.
The National Transportation Safety Board has criticized Tesla's lack of system safeguards for Autopilot and the NHTSA's failure to ensure the safety of Autopilot, according to Reuters.
Meanwhile, the company unveiled its long-range lidar sensor Iris, codeveloped with lidar maker Luminar Technologies, with an aim to start mass-producing its L4 autopilot system based on the technology in 2023.

Chris Lattner, who left Apple in January and had been vice-president of the carmaker's Autopilot software, was the hire Tesla touted earlier this year after losing Sterling Anderson, the head of its Autopilot program.
In listing his contributions to Tesla, he wrote that the Autopilot team was in the midst of a challenging hardware transition during his time with the company and struggling with attrition.
Anderson, Tesla's former head of Autopilot, and Chris Urmson, who for years led Waymo's self-driving efforts before leaving the company in August, are now running their own startup, Aurora Innovation.
"At Tesla, Jim Keller will take overall responsibility for Autopilot hardware and software, according to the company's statement.

Andrej Karpathy has joined the carmaker as director of AI and Autopilot Vision, reporting directly to Musk and working closely with Keller.
The churn at Tesla goes beyond Autopilot.
[Photo/Xinhua]Commuters may dream of autonomous vehicles that relieve the hassle of driving, but the reality of urban centers means the technology still has a way to goJayson Au had been cruising hassle-free in his Tesla Model S. He had turned on Autopilot, the car's driver assist feature, and was feeling relaxed as he passed through Hong Kong's Cross-Harbour Tunnel to pick up his family after a trip to Macao.
"I felt lucky that Autopilot really did steer for me," said the Hong Kong real estate agent, recalling the incident later.
"But I also think it was Autopilot that lowered my awareness and caused me to fall asleep.
"Au bought the Model S after the Hong Kong Special Administration Region approved limited use of Tesla's Autopilot system on city roads last year.
However, the response from drivers to the company's Autopilot function has been mixed.
Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, has said Autopilot is "50 percent safer than a human driver".
Most people disable Autopilot on urban streets.
"If your hands are off the steering wheel for too long, the Autopilot function will be suspended temporarily.
Although Tesla has named its system Autopilot, the company states the system is only partially autonomous - there to assist drivers, not take over.
That was the explanation the company gave last year when a driver who had activated Autopilot died on a highway in Florida, the United States, after his car hit a truck.
It was the first known fatality involving Tesla's Autopilot.
In response, the automaker issued a statement that the accident was only the first after 209 million kilometers of Autopilot driving, compared with the US average of one fatality for every 151 million km for all types of vehicles.
After months of using Autopilot, Au does not trust the system entirely to drive hands-free, but he does believe it is useful.
"I usually turn on the Autopilot function when I'm in the tunnel, because you don't have to change lane and there are hardly any bends," he said.
"But when I reach the end of the tunnel, when two lanes turn into more lanes, I'd suggest turning off Autopilot because the car can't seem to find the right lane and it sways about.
"China Daily recently took a spin with Au in his Model S. As he drove along the 3-km section of the Island Eastern Corridor expressway from Causeway Bay to North Point, he turned on Autopilot.
"Actually, I don't always use Autopilot here because there are quite a few bends.
The car was traveling at 70 km/h, and Autopilot was autonomously adjusting the distance from the car in front.
"Still, he said he believes Autopilot is safer than human drivers, and that the technology will eventually mature and be able to take on the bustling streets of Hong Kong.
