NHTS is asking Tesla to dutifully report all cases when illegal function was enabled, or FSD failed, or if car systems misbehaving could contribute to a crash. But can they trust Tesla to provide accurate data? Same with accident investigation - Tesla likely has much more data about events leading to an accident than investigators, bit would they provide all that data if it would suggest Tesla's responsibility for the accident? Looks like we have no choice but to trust Tesla, but should they be trusted in such matters?

Not providing all data requested would turn a civil matter into a criminal matter. "False statement to a Federal Investigator", etc.

I'm not sure how much of a deterrent that actually is. Musk hasn't seemed to be bothered too much by violating the law when he felt it served him before.

As worded, isn't this every disengagement, since not disengaging could have, maybe, resulted in a crash?
