Your description of a human driver is no different than a self driving vehicle.
An input/output error is the equivalent to a human mistake. And those happen far less often than a human mistake. People make unpredictable stupid mistakes driving all the time.
If you think people make unpredictable mistakes all the time, you shouldn't be driving a motorized vehicle. Because you clearly do not know what to anticipate. Do unpredictable mistakes happen? Sure thing. But they are the rare exception, and almost all the time an aware driver will be cautious about situations so as not to get caught unaware.
