First, in stop and go traffic, the tip would not go above first gear. Pulled over, flashers on, did the turn on/turn off and drove away fine.

Second, started it up in the morning and the CEL came on. turned off/then on. light went out.

I just hope this solution keeps working ;-)

Perhaps I'm missing something. Wouldn't you prefer to actually get the underlying problem fixed? I realize we as a society seem to have accepted that occasionally our computers need to be re-booted... But our cars too?
