In 2006, my daughter was driving her 2005 toyota camry on us41 at 45 MPH. The engine cut off and stalled while she was driving in light traffic in the center lane. No accident was caused and she safely pulled over to the side and called me. I went there and tried to start the car 2x's. Each time it started, it raced to 4000 RPM and cut out. I waited 15 minutes and started the car again. The computer takes 15 min to reset and was able to drive her car to toyota at 20 MPH in limp mode.
