So yeah, I don't really see auto-cars being able to handle these situations that I can barely, or can't even, handle.

ABS controls your brake pressure to apply optimal amounts of pressure without locking the wheels at all times. It not only knows how much pressure to apply to sit right at the limit, it also corrects itself thousands of times a second. Self-driving cars are designed with more that hall sensors and can operate around a 3D simulated environment made from radiation your eyes can't even pick up. They also have vast databases of performance in a wide range of conditions to a degree far wider and more precise that any observing human.

Computers are immensely intelligent and can make vastly better decisions than any person can make, but that's not a valid reason to limit people's ability to excercise their will. I like clever little sensors cleaning up human error to maximise application or intent, but it does have to be acting on the driver's will, not deciding for itself.
