Sure, blame the human.
That's literally their job - to control the car if it starts driving erratically and, more to the point, to take blame/confuse culpability in the event of an incident. Same goes for the code auditors babysitting the algorithms that are putting them out of work. I know "a job's a job", but this is just offering yourself up for sacrifice.
Nearly: Their job is to take the blame when the machine fails.
...yes, that's what I said.
human was driving the car
