You cannot continue driving when the car radiator boils over. The correct handling methods are: 1. Pull over and let the engine idle for a while; 2. Cool down the radiator with water, then turn off the engine and replace the belt; 3. After the engine has completely cooled down, replace the hose and add coolant. A boiling radiator refers to a situation where the engine's operating temperature exceeds the normal working temperature, which affects the machine's normal operation and may cause damage. The reasons for a boiling radiator include: 1. The impact of hot weather; 2. Overloaded air conditioning operation and faulty cooling components; 3. Radiator leakage; 4. Insufficient or deteriorated coolant; 5. Blockage in the coolant circulation system; 6. Thermostat failure; 7. Engine water pump malfunction.
