I don't know why should this happen. There is a procedure and in the check list. The runway designation is written on a square block before the RW, while entering the RW that should be checked and announced. Next with present GPS PRIMARY days the aircraft symbol on the ND should be dead on the selected RW. Last if ILS is on then select ILS/LS on and check LOC is centered. Out of the two in front if one of them checked any one of the three it wouldn't have happened. If none is checked then any RW you enter will be taken as the correct one due to confirmation bias and will take you for a ride. This incident is very strange because the aircraft was taxiing on the parallel taxi track left of Takeoff RW. When cleared for Takeoff they entered RW22R, crossed it to line up on a parallel taxi track between the RW22R and 22L and tried to take off.
