Mr mullens wife was driving on a busy local street at dusk. Passing through a traffic intersection the engine in her car just stalled/died/stopped running. The car was difficult to stop and turn. Once the vehicle was stopped the engine restarted with the first turn of the key. She is not sure if this is related but she thinks its possible that the engine stalled when she turned the headlights on.
