Engine cutting off......completely

Today on my way to work I was traveling down 270 when my car just shut off & died on me. I was attempting to pass this woman who was traveling slow in the fast lane, when she speeds up (she speeds up ~15mph), so I punch it to get around her & get to my exit. When I start to slow down the car starts shaking, then just cuts off. I pull into the shoulder & attempt to restart her, but she just keeps cranking over. After about 5 minutes of letting her sit, she starts right up. The ride is a little rough, but she makes it the rest of the way. Any ideas what this might be? She's been cutting off for a few days now & its been getting proggressively (sp?) worse, but this is the first time she cut off & wouldn't restart immediatly.
 
Most likely your crank sensor is going intermittently. Change it and you will be fixed up...just don't pull the harmonic damper to do it.
