2001 civic ex green key light blinking while engine on

Good morning. I drove my 2001 Honda civic ex to school this morning without realizing the green key was blinking as I was driving. The radio kept turning off for about 2 seconds every few minutes or so while driving. When I got to school (roughly 15 miles away) the alarm reset itself. I read a few threads about the green key light blinking repetitively, but not about the radio turning off and on while driving. Is it a loose battery cable? I just wanted to make sure before I drive home from school. I don't want to be stranded on the freeway. Thank you!

check the battery cables, normally the green key indicates an immobilizer issue.
