stationary objects are in general really hard for ADAS systems to deal with - Autopilot and otherwise - because of history and science... :(

Why emergency braking systems sometimes hit parked cars and lane dividers | Ars Technica

Another Tesla with Autopilot crashed into a stationary object—the driver is suing | Ars Technica

that's not to say it's impossible, just that it's not a solved problem for most manufacturers yet.
thanks for posting. makes sense and now, I will no longer be irritated that it does not always slow down if vehicles are stopped ahead, or going at a crawl. i wont even let it try going forward if traffic stopped and car keeps racing towards them. a little info goes a long way!

Almost self driving.
Usually self driving
Sometimes self driving.
Maybe self driving.
I think it's self driving.
Occasionally self driving.
I hope it's self driving.

And finally: What do you mean it's not really self driving??? Technoking said it was!

Having seen autonomous vehicles in action, and a generally good understanding of the state of lidar, machine vision, etc., I would say ANY sober human has far, far less of a chance of dying while driving themselves versus ANY autonomous system to date.

Aspirational self driving.
