Battery problem

[Shino]

Hi... I'm very pleased if there anybody to settle down my confusion about Honda hybrid battery.
1.When the battery do not work at all while I'm driving (I mean the battery is ruined), would the car stop suddenly or can I continue driving with fuel(gasoline or octane) without any intervention???
2.If the battery is ruined, can I speed up more than 30 mph only with fuel (gasoline or octane)???

Thanks for viewing my question post,

What kind of Honda (model / year) are you asking about?

The first generation Insight can be driven with a "dead" IMA/hybrid battery. Not sure about other models.
