Can You Continue Driving When the Car's Water Temperature is High?

[AlexLynn]

You should not continue driving when the car's water temperature is high. The reasons for high water temperature in a car are: 1. Insufficient coolant in the engine cooling system; 2. A faulty thermostat causing the water temperature to rise; 3. Abnormal operation of the cooling fan, leading to poor heat dissipation of the coolant; 4. A malfunctioning water pump, causing it to rotate poorly; 5. Engine oil entering the radiator. The solutions for high water temperature in a car are: 1. Pull over to the side of the road; 2. Cover the radiator cap with a folded wet cloth several times, then unscrew the cap slightly to allow steam to escape slowly; 3. Monitor the dashboard's water temperature gauge and, once the radiator pressure decreases, add cold water or coolant.
