Exactly. This is why level 2-4 automated cars scare the hell out of me.
The autopilot, carefully designed to handle all situations the engineers have imagined, suddenly throws hands up "you human handle this!". You, having let the car drive itself all the time have 0 hours hands-on driving time. You are now put in a fast-evolving situation too complicated for computers and are expected to do the right thing.
This how AF447 happened.
The commander of AF447 did know exactly the right thing to do, though. (Aside from maybe knocking the copilot out)
Level 3 is already ok. It means the car deals with anything that happens. It's level 2 that is the problem, and guess where most cars are now?
