Has this been confirmed? John Gruber has speculated that the "human error" was that the person sitting in the driver's seat failed to stop the self-driving system from driving through the red light:

- employee8000 10y agoI don't know how much more confirmation you can get than an official statement. If you want to believe speculation over an official statement that's entirely up to you. But if you stand at that particular intersection for an hour, I'm pretty sure it's the one on 3rd street by the MOMA, you'll probably see half a dozen people blow by that light. It's entirely reasonable to think that a human driver would drive through, but it seems rather standard for software to detect the redlight. But you are free to believe what you want.
