True (and funny) but the difference is one of expectations. When you climb in the car and start driving there's no expectation that a blindfold will fall over your eyes. And the bar for tricking a human is higher even if obviously possible.
People letting their car drive itself do not expect something like this to occur and may even have no hint that it's happening (like with speed limit signs). The bar for tricking the car is far lower. None of the autonomous driving systems built so far account for maliciousness and they are still far behind humans in "processing power" so it will be easier to trick them. For a while at least.
