Blown Away (on hold)

"Watch out!" Clara screams, and Mark quickly stops the van.
In front of them, the tree that was standing only a moment before, is now lying on the road, blocking their way.

The wind blows the van towards the edge of the road, and they all move to the left trying to prevent it from turning over.
