As i was driving, all of the lights (oil, brake, abs, check engine) all of it came on at the same time and made a noise and the car shut down , while i was driving. I am a college student with a commute, and thank god i was near a neighborhood to pull over immediately. I tried waiting 10 minute to restart, and it would not even start because the whole thing was dead and the lights were on. This nearly killed me.

I was driving at about 25mph on montgomery drive in philadelphia (city street) in the morning of 12/9/2019. It was raining lightly. The car in front of me was about 4 to 5 car-lengths ahead. It braked as another car tried to cut in, and i also immediately braked. My brake felt grinding and my car continued to slide into the back of the car in front of me.
