Officials in Oman said two women were killed in the crash on the south coast of Salalah, close to the Middle Eastern country's border with Yemen. Police are investigating driver culpability, and whether or not he had a licence after the car veered off a road, according to a statement. The identity of the victims, and how long they have been in Oman for, is not yet known. "Driving can be dangerous outside Muscat; there is a risk of hitting wandering camels and goats on the road. Driving standards in Oman are not always as disciplined as those in the UK, and the rate of traffic accidents in Oman is significantly higher."
