that data is nonsense. considering global EV marketshare is <5%, your data includes cars that aren't as safe as Teslas.
and it includes drunk drivers, intersection crashes, and many other causes of car crashes that you won't see in tunnels.
you're the one being dishonest.

You are just hand-waving statistics (as usual) and ignoring stats that are against what you are saying. Yes, as I said EVs are safer than ICE vehicles, both both are less safe than rail. By several orders of magnitude. Tunnels don't make them safer.

you're the one showing data for above ground gas cars when we're discussing electric vehicles underground. you're ignoring the situation and throwing out whatever numbers that sound like it's supporting your confirmation bias

driving a car in tunnels literally removes several of the top reasons of car crashes huffpost.com/entry/top-15-c
you're wrong

Well the cars come out of the tunnels and go to the stations---also cars themselves have inherent risks of combustion/catastrophic failure, all of which are far greater than trains.

cars stay in tunnel until service ends. they're next to the parking lot so none of that street specific crashes apply but even if it did, no other passengers are hurt.
trains cars don't have catastrophic failure? derailment? again you're ignoring what applies to trains

Of course there are train accidents---but they occur at a far lower rate vs. all modes of traffic except flying. And no the Teslas actually cross streets with pedestrian traffic all along the station route, so there are chances of collisions/accidents.

again, you can't compare the data against teslas in tunnels because you don't have that data.
and it literally does not cross streets considering it's located literally at the same grounds as parking lots

Yeah, well you can assume that the tunnels will be a few times safer than normal car traffic, that's reasonable. But not 30 times safer---since they are still cars driven by human drivers and have to deal with all of the normal things that cars have to deal with.

"not 30 times safer"
again no data and i never said the tunnel is 30 times safer.
1
Yeah you did---by saying it will be as safe or safer than trains. According to my data that's 30 times safer than normal cars. It will likely be safer than uber, but not significantly so and not safer than any normal light rail system.
Weird Twitter didn't notify me about this reply.
"according to my data that's 30 times safer"
THEN THAT WOULD BE YOU SAYING IT'S 30 TIMES SAFER.
