Let's say we want to find primes by certain algorithms (called primality tests) A sound primality test will never say that a number is prime when it is composite (but it may fail to detect some primes as such; it may also sometimes fail to HALT) A complete primality test will never say that a number is composite when it is prime (but it may fail to detect ...

Either the car is aware of its initial position (in which case, the problem is easy) or else upon reaching an edge a car with visibility 1 is unable to correctly determine which way to turn. Thus I believe the answer to your question is no.

Here is an outline. Consider $k$ copies of the vertices. Call then $V_1, \cdots, V_k$. If $(u,v)$ is an edge, connect $(u_i, v_{i+1})$ for all $i$. Run BF on $s \in V_1$ and $t \in V_k$.

We can solve this in expected $O(n/p^2)$ time with a randomized algorithm. Pick two distinct points at random, and see if the line through them passes through at least $p$ fraction of the points. If not, repeat. The check takes $O(n)$ time to visit all the points, and the probability that both of the chosen points are on the line is $p^2$, so we will iterate ...
