Humans have enough intelligence, though, to be able to figure out when the other lane is oncoming traffic and those spurious markings are in fact spurious (snow or a plastic bag).

Sure, but a self driving car might know it should stop at an intersection even if the stop sign is missing because it is a database of stops. Computer and humans are going to have different weaknesses, but if you are intentionally trying to fool them you are going to be able to find a way to do it.
