CAR OVERHEATING:
When your car has overheated, open all the windows, turn OFF the air conditioner, turn ON the heater, but DON'T run the fan and DO NOT lug the engine. Shift DOWN (in either stick or automatic) in order to keep up the engine's rpm. One of the worst results may be if your vehicle doesn't blow steam and forces you to stop. As the coolant temperature moves over 220 degrees and the pressurized system allows super-heating, you will damage the exhaust manifold, exhaust valves, radiator hoses and water pump and you probably won't know about it until later when you have to pay for the damage.

Are you supposed to STOP the car to do all that?
