You're both getting downvoted because you're coming off as both obtuse and heartless.
When things go wrong at 60mph, people panic. When you're panicking, it's hard to remember skills you were taught in calmer circumstances--and nobody practices high-speed power failures, so you don't even have muscle memory to fall back on.
It is an engineer's responsibility to prevent dangerous situations from occurring, as far as is practical. "Dangerous situations" include those which are likely to induce panic in an average driver, even if a particularly skilled driver could handle them. Often it isn't practical, which is why so many people die in traffic accidents every day, but in this case the problem with the ignition switch was known and deliberately ignored. There's no excuse.
