It's exceptionally unlikely that AUTOPILOT did this.
AP only follows the lane/road you're in.
Maybe it was FSD, but this is terrible reporting.
A perfect example of why calling it autopilot in the first place was a bad idea. The name misrepresents the feature, which is really just lane keeping and a few other minor things.
The name does not misrepresent the feature, and has been used accordingly in aviation for decades.
Yes, because the general public are aviation experts.
