Description of the problem	I was driving about at 50 mph on a highway with my kids and had only 1 to 2 miles left to exit. Suddenly, i felt something wrong in the engine or powertrain as i couldn't accelerate my car. When i tried to hit hard on the acceleration pedal, my car would accelerate a little bit, but not that much. While i stepped down on the pedal, i felt my car was rolling up and down. Anyway, my speed was being reduced as it didn't accelerate. Finally, i exited the highway. I had to stop at the intersection and then tried to start, but my car moved very slowly and hard with the rolling. It is only 1-mile distance to my home from the intersection, but i had to pull over my car to a shoulder as i found that i couldn't no longer drive my car without interrupting the traffic. I also could see white/black smoke coming out from my car through my room mirror and smell something burnt in the engine room. Lastly, i had to call a towing company for pick-up.
