    This is my hunch too. Perhaps the UI is more distracting with Tesla’s implementation of screens/menus/feedback for car functions too.

    Just pointing out the study emphasize occupant fatalities which I take as to exclude external fatalities such as other vehicles.

      Oh yeah, the big infotainment system could definitely be a factor in bad driving.

      Also thanks for pointing out the methodology on how they’re counting fatalities, that easily scratches one item off my list.
