What to Do When a Car Suddenly Stalls While Driving?

[JaylaRose]

Here are the steps to handle a sudden car stall while driving: 1. Turn on the hazard lights and try to stabilize the car as much as possible, avoiding sudden steering wheel movements. 2. For manual transmission cars: Depress the clutch, shift the gear lever into the appropriate gear based on the current speed, then release the clutch to allow the engine to restart using the vehicle's momentum. 3. For automatic transmission cars: Shift into neutral (N), being careful not to accidentally engage reverse (R) as this could damage the transmission, then restart the engine. Alternatively, you can turn on the hazard lights, pull over to the side of the road, and then restart the engine.
