Car turned off while backing up

I have a 03 with 40k miles. While backing out of my garage, my car turned off the second I got on the driveway.. I let the car warm up for about 3 minutes, it wasn't that cold and the temperature was around 50ish

Anyone know what might have caused this? I was a bit scared while driving to work thinking it'll shut off while I'm on the freeway

you may have to take it into the dealer for diagnostic check....that is scary though...it just shut off the entire car, just like that? no warnings, no indications?
