I had the same thing happen, same conditions.FSD Beta 10.69.2.2 definitely wasn't slowing down for the yellow and potentially not even for the red light, so I needed to disengage around here as the visualization was showing bright green traffic lights:

As you can probably tell from the car's own shadow, the sun was pretty low, and FSD Beta was already getting confused at unlit yellow school lights but brightened by the sun angle. Here's a view from the back at the traffic light, and even then it's hard to see the next car:

Definitely a corner case as the sun setting only lines up with this road only for a few days of the year and happens only for a few minutes each of those days. On the flip side, I've noticed that FSD Beta actually does fine even with the sun directly behind a traffic light as there's multiple traffic lights to look for and doesn't mind "staring at the sun."
Most of my drives have been uneventful but I may have discovered another edge case — anyone are try this? :
When pulling out of a parking lot into a 2-4 lane street, position the car at a right angle to the street and turn on FSD.
Twice now the car has gone in a straight line rather than turning into the street, the first time directly into a bus that was passing. 2nd time it was aiming at the opposite curb.
Both times I disengaged quickly. I think it couldn’t tell I was entering a street and it need to turn either right or left.
