Best Answer

It is best to drive home and put a battery charger on the battery and let it fully charge. Letting it charge with the alternator puts a strain on the alternator and should be avoided if possible. But if you have no charger then you will need to let the engine run for around 30 minutes to charge the battery enough so that it will start the next morning. It will take a couple of hours of driving to fully charge the battery.

Battery will be flat because spark plugs were running straight off your battery because the alternator was not charging your battery as you were driving. You can test this by jump starting your car with another car and after your car is running you should be able to disconnect your battery and car should still run off the alternator. If your car stops than your alternator is RS. Battery will be flat because spark plugs were running straight off your battery because the alternator was not charging your battery as you were driving.
