After the police check point in Chai Prakan I entered into the mountain pass. Heavy rain started to pour down. So strong it was hard to see. Two kilometers further on it stopped. After I passed a curve the tail of my car wanted to take over from the left. For a moment it felt like loosing control and I saw myself flipping the truck. I went slightly on the breaks and the ABS started to work. I had to steer left and right to keep control of the truck but managed to turn it around coming to a stand still in the middle of the road. I quickly put first gear in to drive to the side knowing there were other cars coming a little behind me. This all happened in just a second. I thank God for His protection and that nothing bad happened.<br \/>This is the second time I experienced this. The roads here can get very slippery. The surface wasn&#8217;t wet. It hadn&#8217;t rained there yet. I don&#8217;t understand why this happened. I wasn&#8217;t driving very fast either and now this road very well. It was really one of those freak moments.<br \/>Thanks for all who pray for us. It seems to work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday afternoon I drove back from a trip to Fang.
