If the car is fitted with an electric cooling fan, this may have failed.
A car moving will normally get enough air to keep the radiator cool.
I have known a water pump to be faulty, where the vanes have become detached
this causes lack of flow in the cooling system.
Trans fluid is always checked with car level and idling while warmed up.
Need to change your thermastat i have done that but still over heats when driving

When a vehicle is idling, the engine may not produce enough heat to warm the coolant effectively, leading to cold air from the heater. In contrast, while driving, the engine works harder and generates more heat, allowing the heater to blow warm air. The engine temperature can rise while idling due to reduced airflow through the radiator and less coolant circulation, while driving increases airflow and coolant flow, helping to cool the engine.
2001 sienna stall while just stop while driving. electric just cut out power, then switch can operated but idling roughling
A bad fan clutch, low on coolant, missing fan shroud, bad thermostat or a plugged up radiator.
If your 1994 Pontiac Trans Am randomly stalls out while driving, you may have clogged fuel injectors or a bad distributor. Check the distributor first, as this is the easiest to replace.
air leek
Loose motor mounts.
fuel pump relay may need replacing
Check the Trans cable it maybe lose!!!!
It is the idling sensor on top of the intake
