Clicking through to the lending tree report, Tesla drivers have below average DUI rates: 1.02 per 1000 drivers ranking them 19/30, with BMW the worst at 3.13, and Mitsubishi the best at 0.89. I wonder how much of this is due to Tesla drivers drinking and driving less, and how much is due to Auto Pilot making them less likely to be caught unless they crash.

Even without autopilot a modern vehicle has lane following, adaptive cruise control, etc. so if you’re not drunk enough to fail to turn those one, you may just look like another driver.
