No they don’t which is why they suspended all vehicles pending a software update.

Also, how does this compare to human drivers?

The best thing about this is that now the problem has been identified the software can be fixed and this particular problem won’t happen again. If a human makes this mistake you can’t push an update to fix all human drivers.
