The safest thing might be for the car to pull over, put on hazard lights, and tell you to wait or call for assistance.
Humans deciding to go continue driving in such conditions is a mistake, leading to more collisions. Perhaps there will be a manual override, like "Unsafe conditions, voice password and waiver required to continue in manual mode; you might die or kill someone else."
