If I'm not mistaken the only prevention I know of is coolant and the only thing I can think of is that the car ran out of coolant. If your car is overheating it can either be because the coolant is not moving fast enough, the heat isn't getting transferred out of the engine to the coolant, or it is not getting transferred out of the coolant to the air through the radiator

there many things you could do, one is try getting a cooling system, another thing is its extramly hot and you may need to tunr off your car to prevent the engine from over heating.
