1999 Dodge Intrepid Automatic 171000 miles

Every once in a while when I'm driving my car jerks slightly. It started jerking when I was driving over 50 mph then it started doing it at lower speeds and now it is doing it while i'm at a stop sign or stop light. All my fluids are good. Why is it jerking and is it ok to still drive it while it's jerking?
