I have a 1999 plymouth breeze and after the car has sat for a few hours it will die when driving for the first few miles down the road. If I drive below 30 mph for about 3-4 miles it will not die, but after the 3-4 miles of driving slow it drives fine and I am able to drive it at normal speeds the rest of the time. It does it every time it sits for 2 long. (First thing every day).

This sounds like either a faulty fuel pressure regulator, clogged fuel filter and/or a bad pump.

BUT, I'm only guessing, as there are several possible causes to your problem

If the car cuts off during a drive, there should definitely be a code stored in your computer. Start by having you computer scanned.
