Went to start car wouldn't start or turn over. Received jump from roadside assistance and waited 20 min before attempting to drive to the nearest auto zone (2 miles). Once I started driving the dashboard lights started flickering and as soon as I came to a red light at a very busy 3 lane intersection I was in the middle lane and my car shut off & wouldn't turn back on.
