Better than getting into a crash when it mistakes the moon's green cheese for a green light (aka "The Florida Man Option").

"Even a car that is pure in heart, and gets its downloads at night, can become a wolf, when the moon is full and bright..." Gypsy Lady.

It could have been worse.

So whenever a Tesla mistakenly ID's the Moon as a yellow traffic light it goes all "peddle-to-the-metal" before the light goes red?
