"Reader View" button in firefox does wonders for such pages. Just wait until page loads (don't scroll), click button and you have just one column of text and scripts don't work anymore.
With regard to situations where the car's cameras have difficulty distinguishing the color of the traffic signals when the sun is directly behind overwhelming the traffic light, why not add a different kind of signal intended for cars only rather than equip every car with "better cameras". Same for "wide turns", flammable liquids, etc. Develop a parallel protocol for non human drivers alongside the already existing protocols for humans. Simple but robust transmitters and receivers with fallback to interpreting human protocol in the event of failure.
So... people who want to sell autonomous driving argue that human behavior and the organization of public space should adapt to accommodate the unsolved problems of autonomous driving.
