But since the car itself was detected, the autonomous one couldn't accelerate even if it thought the cyclist was far.

This is a failed state because the system has detected objects that are not present.

We can't know how the system will react in a failed state because engineers will not have prepared for such an eventuality (ignoring negligence).
