Driving with cruise control at 30 MPH, the engine light turned on , and suddenly the engine shut down, no brakes and no power steering. I went to turn right at the nearest available side street so I would get out of the way of traffic. As I was trying to turn right, the steering wheel was very hard to turn and I ended up on the wrong side of road and impeding traffic. Luckily the road was slightly uphill and the truck was able to come to a stop. I then applied the emergency brake and turned the key to the off position. I tried restarting the truck to get it out of the opposite side of the road and at that time it cranked and it had a stalled rubble sound for about 3 seconds and then shut down again. At some point the transmission became locked and the tow truck driver had to use the shift lock release to get it on the flatbed.
