    We also receive a crash alert anytime a crash is reported to us from the fleet, which may include data about whether Autopilot was active at the time of impact. To ensure our statistics are conservative, we count any crash in which Autopilot was deactivated within 5 seconds before impact, and we count all crashes in which the incident alert indicated an airbag or other active restraint deployed. https://www.tesla.com/en_eu/VehicleSafetyReport

    In the case the crash happened later than 5 seconds after Autopilot was disabled, or it was never used in the first place, it would be in the “Tesla vehicles not using autopilot technology” part of the data.

    As for automatically detecting not-crashes, that’s a bit harder to do don’t ya think?
