I was driving down the road and the car just shut off. I tried restarting it. All the lights on the dash came on but it would not do nothing. It would not even try to turn over.

Have you had the battery tested yet?Also what does the voltage read at idle?

Yeah they said the battery and the alternator were both good and working.

You need to get a volt meter that plugs into the cig lighter so you can see what the voltage reads when it acts up.
