If your car is overheating, you shouldn't drive it in such condition because extreme car overheating can cause expensive and even permanent damage to the motor.
Common damage includes but is not limited to one or more water hoses rupturing, a broken radiator cap, a blown radiator, actual motor damage such as blown head gaskets and more.
If your car is overheating, you should immediately pullover and park it in a safe location such as at a gas station or a parking lot and call someone to service it.
Once you know that your vehicle overheats, do not attempt to drive it without the "cause of the overheating" being repaired, otherwise the cost of repairing further damage could be astronomically more to include an unrepairable motor.
If a water hose ruptured due to the vehicle overheating and you only replace the water hose with another hose, the car could overheat again and stall or die out on the road leaving you stranded once again if the problem that causes the vehicle to overheat is not fixed.

In most instances the rupturing of a water hose is not the original cause but simply a symptom of another issue.
The cause of the car overheating could be one or more of the following reasons like: low on anti-freeze or coolant, having air in the system, having a stuck thermostat, a clogged radiator, a bad heater core, a faulty radiator fan, a blown fuse or a bad water pump.
