It's an issue that needs to be fixed but it's not extremely simple.
The car always has still-standing objects in front of the car (the road, anything around the road, barriers, anything on opposite sides of barriers, things in the direction of the ar but the road is turning etc.
The car has to know that the road doesn't slope up over the truck or around it. I'm guessing that's where the split-barrier fails occur.
It really needs to create a real-time 3d map of the entire environment (including what's visible from eye-height, not only front of hood) and map a route through that.

Easy (but not trivial) to do with LIDAR but not yet doable with purely visual systems like "Autopilot." Which is my point, and which is the reason every other self-driving car company uses a combination of sensors to get data about car's surroundings.
