This is the terrifying moment a car spun out of control on a wet road in Malaysia.

Azuan Fahmi narrowly avoided a road crash when the green vehicle lost control on the slippery highway following heavy rain in Ipoh, Perak, on October 14.

Footage shows the vibrant hatchback skidding and rotating near the barricade, eventually ending up facing the wrong direction. Reacting quickly, Azuan swerved to dodge the four-wheeler.

The filmer said: 'Be careful, the road is slippery when it rains. Luckily, I managed to avoid it.'

Malaysia and its neighbouring countries in Southeast Asia are in their annual monsoon season, which brings soaring temperatures followed by powerful afternoon rainstorms, leading to widespread flash floods.
