My son was on his way to work. It stopped on him and he had to roll to the side of the rode. I have changed the spark plugs, but still does the same thing.

This sounds like the crankshaft angle sensor or the fuel pump has gone out, when you turn the key to the on position without cranking the engine over can you hear the fuel pump run in the tank for 5 seconds? These guides should help us fix it.
