Oopsie. This strikes me as perhaps one of the growing pains of not-quite-self-driving: common sense would dictate that manual control would be taken by the driver when approaching an unusual situation like a roadside incident, but we just can't trust the common sense of a minority of people.

Tesla perhaps isn't being loud enough about how autopilot isn't self-driving, and shouldn't even be relied upon to hit the brakes when something is in front of you.

What on earth makes you think it's the minority of people who stop paying attention when machinery is handling some task all by itself the vast majority of the time? There's plenty of research that says otherwise even among highly-trained individuals.
