> I don't understand how the Tesla couldn't see the centre barrier but it can detect when a crash is about it happen, can someone explain that?

AFAIK the AP focuses more on moving targets for collision avoidance, stationary objects are harder because there's so many of them you'll never hit since they're above or next to the road, but that's hard to tell until they're very close (can't see where the road leads to 100m away).

That's the very definition of "you're driving way too fast (and if that's your only detection method, you shouldn't be on the road)".
