You don’t need lidar to make the good choice to slow down significantly in a snowstorm or to not drive the car at all when you encounter a heavy one.

I also doubt human brains are the best at visual processing. Certainly at subtasks, quite a few animals are better.

In particular, I would think the night vision of nocturnal animals are better at that “detecting cars in a snow storm” task than middle-aged humans wearing not quite correct glasses.
