IT CUTOFF AND I HAD TO GET OUT THE CAR AND WAVE OTHER CARS OFF SO THEY WOULDNT HIT ME. AS I GOT TO A SAFE AREA FROM HELP OF ANOTHER DRIVER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. I CUT THE CAR OFF AND CALLED MY HUSBAND AND HE SAID AFTER 10 TO TRY AND START IT BACK UP AND IT DID IT CRUNK BACK UP AND I DROVE SLOWLY HOME WITH HAZARD LIGHTS ON AND WHEN I GOT HOME AND CUT THE CAR OFF I LET IT SIT FOR 10 MINUTES AGAIN AND WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS OFF.
