When I drive my car at start up and at stops the car will shake a bit a then shut off.
It will restart with the turn of the key but will shut off at every stop.

I would start by cleaning the throttle body and throttle plate, as well as the idle air bypass with some throttle cleaner.
It could be many other things but that's what I'd do first. I would also check for codes.
