Drivers aren't trained to follow checklists and usually don't have dozens of seconds to respond to mechanical emergencies. Cars also don't fall out of the sky if they break down. It's not a great metaphor.
Yeah, I figured it's usually many minutes but didn't want to underplay the stress and difficulty of following a checklist in an extreme emergency. In contrast, car major mechanical failures generally resolve themselves extremely quickly.
12 minutes, in this case.
