一 | 据美国电动汽车新闻网站Electrek称，在1月9日下午，北京时间，特斯拉本周发布了最新的第四季度安全报告。这是公司的第二份此类报告，以回应特斯拉认为媒体对事故的报道不公平。在最后一个季度，每英里的事故增加了，但自动驾驶仪似乎仍然比人类驾驶者更安全。 KABUL, Afghanistan -- The watchdog for U.S. assistance to Afghanistan has warned that the Taliban are benefiting from international aid through the establishment of fraudulent nongovernmental organizations.The Taliban have exerted greater control over national and international NGOs since seizing power in August 2021. They have barred Afghan women from NGO work and sought to push out foreign organizations from the education sector.A report from the U.S. Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction, or SIGAR, said it found that the Taliban benefit from American-funded education programming through the generation of tax revenues and from more “nefarious” methods like the establishment of fraudulent NGOs and extorting and infiltrating existing NGOs to obtain or direct international donor aid. In May, a SIGAR report highlighted the Taliban’s interference with NGO work in Afghanistan. The Ministry of Economy, which supervises the sector, rejected the claims. Ministry spokesman Abdul Rahman Habib, responding to the latest SIGAR report on Monday, said there was no evidence of interference.According to the report, published this month, the U.S. has spent around $185 million on education in Afghanistan since August 2021.An NGO official told SIGAR that the Taliban target and extort Afghans who receive monetary support from American-funded education programs under the guise of taxation. In another example, NGO officials told the watchdog that the Taliban coerced NGOs into hiring supporters or purchasing goods from Taliban-owned companies.Taliban policies and priorities have reduced the overall quality of education, with a drop in the number of teachers and a decrease in teacher quality, as unqualified community members or Taliban officials replace staff, SIGAR said."We found that the Taliban have been unable to fully fund public school teacher salaries and building maintenance costs, leading to further teacher shortages and the deterioration of school buildings."The redirection of international donor aid to community-based education schools, along with financial and infrastructure challenges facing the Taliban, raised serious questions about how the Taliban could sustain the education sector and if they had any intention of doing so, the report said.An Education Ministry spokesman, Qari Mansor Ahmad Hamza, called the SIGAR report baseless and said the quality of teaching and school facilities in Afghanistan is better than before.“At present, the projects and financial assistance of international aid agencies are under the strong supervision of the top leadership of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan,” Hamza said, employing the term the Taliban use to describe their administration. The leadership promises to “invest this aid” and share reports with the country, the spokesman added.。去年10月，特斯拉发布了其第一份安全报告，该报告基于2018年第三季度的数据。特斯拉当时表示，公司“每行驶334万英里就发生一次，当时一名司机打开了自动驾驶仪”。在没有自动驾驶仪的情况下，“每192000英里发生一次事故”。

二 | 在第四季度的报告中，特斯拉通过创建一个小型的车辆安全报告网站来调整其方法。

三 | 特斯拉说，在上一季度，自动驾驶仪打开时每291万英里就发生一次事故，而自动驾驶仪没有打开时每158万英里就发生一次事故。根据国家公路交通安全管理局（NHTSA）的最新数据，美国平均每436000英里就发生一次事故。因此，特斯拉的事故率较低。与第三季度相比，第四季度自动驾驶仪和驾驶员的事故率有所上升。这可能是由于今年最后几个月大多数市场的驾驶条件恶化所致。
