You won't hear any complaint about me that the reports and the articles about them show basic innumeracy (at least the NHTSA report says "Summary Incident Report Data Are Not Normalized").

But it's quite clear the report has other, deep issues, which prevent it from being useful: "it is important to note that these crashes are categorized based on what driving automation system was reported as being equipped on the vehicle, not on what system was reported to be engaged at the time of the incident."

I only want to see a report about crashes that occurred when the system engaged and the user was not given an opportunity to take over with enough lead time. I don't think the companies are sharing that detailed information right now.
