It has never happened to me, and i'm not sure if i'm suposed to leave it there in the middle of the street, cause i'm pretty sure i won't be able to push it to the side by myself... what is one to do? I've read that if it looks like it's failing you should drive it to a shoulder, but what if i don't have enough time to make it over there?

if you can get to the side do that, but your question placed you in the middle of the high speed and dense traffic and DITW (dead in the water).
1) You can not restart the car
2) You will SURELY die if you exit the car into traffic...unless you happen to be on either side of the road (not a part of your question tho..)
soooo..
Your only choice is to put on the flashers, hunker down and call for help on a cell. The mass of the car is easier to see and offers the best protection to you from the other vehicles.
about this time a little prayer might not be a bad idea...

If you can't get the car to the side of the road before it quits totally, and if traffic is fast and heavy STAY IN THE CAR wherever it stops. Put your flashers on and sooner or later a trooper or tow truck will arrive. Keep your seatbelt on while you wait. A cell phone, even one that is not in service will allow you to call 911 if there is life in the battery. Even a pay as you go with no time on it will go through to 911.

i ought to indicate that you no longer flow on the line given the placement of you automobile. it can make it, it ought to no longer, notwithstanding the line is not any position to be certain. At sixty 5 mph, automobiles are vacationing at 95.5 ft in step with 2d! in the adventure that your automobile were to stall, it really is a very risky situation. particular, you're able to opt for the flow onto the shoulder, yet i'll bear in mind numerous information thoughts the position human beings were killed at the same time as there automobile replaced into rear-ended at the same time as broke down on the area of the line. in case you actually want to flow, detect a experience, or use somebody else's automobile, no party is worth your life.
