I just thought about this while I was at work and the lights all turned off because of a thunderstorm. So what do you guys think would happen if the whole world went completely black for lets say 15 minutes. What I think would happen is that they would be a lot of deaths do to car crashes. What do you think

Would cars still have electricity in their batteries to power the head lights? If so there wouldn't be as many crashes. If the world went completely black with no lights for around 15 mins it'd be complete chaos, or maybe not. No one would know it's a worldwide blackout because they'd have no way of communicating to anyone else other than the people around them. I'd say there'd be a lot of damage done to computer ect. because a sudden stop of electricity flow isn't good for computers. There would be deaths in hospitals because things like life support machines ect. would just stop and the person would die.

Assuming it would be like War of the Worlds where everything stops, cars, watches, mobiles, everything, then there would be a lot of car crashes.
Think about how many cars are driving around right now, crossing intersections and speeding down motorways.
Sudden loss of control over all of those cars would be chaos, not to mention airplanes, ships and trains losing power.
