18s isn't even the maximum. If you are stabbed by another commoner, they have only a chance of 65% to hit your ac, so the average damage per turn is 2.5*0.65=1.625
On average, you would survive 12s and become unconscious after 18s, dying after 24s from two more direct attacks
Presumably, someone attempting to mug you would probably be a bandit (+3 to hit, +1 to damage), not another commoner
It's the cats you gotta worry about.
