Default Steering Wheel locked up- Check gauges light

I just pulled up to a stop sign and rolled through it haha but then I pulled up to another and realized my steering wheel was locked. Like it wouldn't rotate left or right and I could still use the gas pedal and the brakes. So I drove a good 100ft to get out of the middle of the road. I could barely get it to budge but the temperature gauge would go up and then I saw the battery level was on L so I shut it off on the side of the road. After a minute I started it back up and was able to go through all the gears and go in reverse and go foward but still couldn't go any direction except straight.
