I WAS DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY AT 60MPH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE ALTERNATOR LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR RAPIDLY DECELERATE FROM 60 TO 19 MPH. I SMELLED BURNING SMOKING SMELL AND HAD TO QUICKLY GET OUT OF THE MIDDLE LANE AND TO THE RIGHT TO GET OFF THE EXPRESSWAY. I TURNED OFF THE AIR CONDITIONING EVEN THOUGH IT WAS A 100 DEGREE DAY AND THE CAR REGAINED A TINY BIT OF ENERGY AND CONTINUED FORWARD AT 25 MPH. I MANAGED TO GET IT THE FEW MILES HOME BUT WAS SMELLING BURNING SMOKE THE WHOLE TIME. I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED INSTANTLY WHEN IT SHUT DOWN IN THE MIDDLE LANE OF THE EXPRESSWAY.
