Hi, it might be a good idea to investigate wind chill a bit further. No matter how fast you drive the air hitting the radiator, in your example, will still be 0 degrees. But if the vehicle is moving, then windchill does lower the temp. If there are 2 thermometers outside — one in the wind and one shielded from the wind — they will still read the same temperature. The same idea applies to moving vehicles. I know that.
But it will accelerate the cooling effect, meaning the it will take longer for the engine to reach its optimum working temperature. I live on a main road in a hilly area and in summer I often have a procession of people with cars that have boiled.
One and all of them have no coolant in the expansion tank as the tank is a dark brown colour. They expect me to be able to fix their cars. They often just wait for the car to cool down a bit and then they go on their way. People would just go onto my land and take water not only for their cars but also to fill water drinking bottles and water containers. Cyclists were also big offenders for that. Ordinary homeowners on main roads are not there to fix your car when it calls time.

If the fluids inside the engine freeze, they can burst just like the pipes in your house! Antifreeze lowers the freezing point of fluids that it is mixed with, minimizing the risk of damage from freezing.
