I learned this playing Gran Turismo video games way back when. The game has long endurance races (I seem to remember races that ran about 2 hours, but there may have been longer ones). Eventually you get hungry or thirsty or have to use the bathroom, so you pause the game, take care of business, and resume. It's really easy to screw up if the game was paused while your car was doing anything other than stable, straight travel. A turn that I successfully handled 100 times before can suddenly feel foreign and challenging if I resume there with little context.
Obviously that's not exactly the same thing as taking over for a real car when the driver assistance features give up, but seems similarly challenging to take over the controls at the most precarious moment of travel, without being sort of "warmed up" as a driver.
