Lidar alone is not enough, as it relies on the certain reflective properties of objects around (and there's also solar light noise).
But yes, they ought to add a lidar and more cameras so that there's 360 coverage with a good overlap, and a single failed sensor does not disable the ability to auto-drive safely.

Joking aside, there probably will not be special roads since the cars need to be safe in case the roads fail anyway. And I don't think anyone will be for these new roads that no cars can use so it is also a chicken and egg problem.
