Yes! I would rather spend resources to standardize “smart” traffic control infrastructure, where vehicles and road/street constantly communicate with each other even if it would just be for augmenting drivers’ awareness. For example in-car warnings about abrupt stop ahead, train approaching level crossing, positions of nearby vehicles, traffic light cycles, actual speed limits etc… Training “AI” to make sense of (sometimes barely) human readable signs and clues is waste of time in my opinion. Maybe just for helping with low speed obstacle avoidance…
