Exclamation engine cuts off while driving

driving down the road today, the engine shut off at 60mph. as i put it into neutral to start it, it would turn over but not fire. after pushing it across 3 lanes of highway, it started up after waiting about 15 minutes.

before this incident, sometimes it wouldnt start after i had driven it for a while, about 10 miles. if i wait about 10-15 minutes, it will start up again.

any ideas on what the problem is/how to fix it??

any help is greatly appreciated.

seen this a few times on other forums... crankshaft/engine speed sensor seems to be the cure. fault code p0322 should be stored.
