Crash reports are filed by the operators, and a report doesn't mean the AV was at fault. NHTSA publishes the month, not the day, and removes street locations. One crash reported by two companies counts once. City logs are unverified public reports. Data through Sep 2026. XoomPark isn't affiliated with NHTSA, the cities or the companies listed.
