The other comment pointing this out has been (ridiculously) flagged, so I'll repeat the point that was made:

The analysis is useless if it doesn't account for the base rate fallacy (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_rate_fallacy)

The first thing I thought before even reading the analysis was "Does the author account for it?" And indeed he makes no mention that he did.

So after reading the whole article I have no idea whether Tesla's automatic driving is any worse at detecting motorcycles than my Subaru's (which BTW also uses only visual sensors).

Antidisclaimer: I hate both Teslas and Musk. And my hate for one is not tied to the other.
