Both of those conditions can be handled by human drivers...a "self-driving" car had better at least handle them safely (e.g., alert the driver and then disengage autopilot), even if it can't actually navigate under the circumstances.

Someone will do that. I'd hope that the car would alert the driver as soon as it started that there was no usable sensor data.

Of course, so we should just assume that these things work perfectly and that bad actors don't exist. Sounds safe to me.

Not always, at least not well -- I had a car drift into the side of my car in the rain when the lane markers were nearly invisible and the seams in the road made it seem like his lane was moving into my lane.
