they paved over the median and had one side of the highway drive on half the opposite side.

That's called a contraflow.

How does it choose a good speed? What about when you know a particular road is wet and snowy and particularly slippery? Does it know to brake early and gently? What about going face-first downhill with a big load in the back? What about an extremely steep road that's coated in a thin layer of solid ice?

It knows these things, yes, common environmental factors are surprisingly easy to sense and counter with all the equipment running well. Of course if a sensor goes down then it'd be more dangerous than a personally-driven vehicle.
