Check the grounds under the rear most screw on right (passenger) valve cover.
Mine were dirty and loose and caused the exact same symptom driving back from a long hot track day weekend. Was not fun.

With an electrical problem, all the previous items are likely, but don't forget your ignition switch. If you have a large bunch of keys, hitting bumps could start them swinging around and making/breaking the contacts. Try with the ignition key only on your next test drive.

Yes, I think you are right. It would be the same as switching the car off. I don't think there are different contacts in the switch for several circuits. Good point.
