Given that often human-driven, or human-parked, cars create similar temporary obstacles, the most important question here is: does this happen more-often, or for longer-periods, with autonomous cars? I don't see the article, or quoted

Then a 3rd-party app is the most-likely route-of-compromise, as it could explain a tweet without a password-compromise or password-change. If you regain even read-only access to your account, check/trim those first.
