This Omani national has never gotten a traffic fine in all his years of driving, according to Times of Oman.
Born in 1932, Sultan Al Ghafri bought his first car, a 1968 Geep in 1970 at the age of 38.
Funnily enough, Mr Al Ghafri had taught himself how to drive, and only obtained a driver's license two years later in the capital of Muscat.
"I would make trips to three cities in the neighbouring United Arab Emirates: Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and Al Ain. I would make it a point to drive slowly – my speed did not exceed 60 km/hr, which was also because the streets were unpaved – and this has seen me not pick up any traffic fines so far."
He recalls his many memories in the car, remembering one in particular:
"I have gone through many sweet and bitter moments in this vehicle,” said Sultan, sharing one such experience. “One I will never forget is when I needed to take a pregnant woman to hospital – she was about to give birth. However, the distance to the hospital and the condition of the unpaved roads meant it would take time to get there, so she ultimately gave birth in the car."
Mr Al Ghafri later sold his beloved Jeep, and bought a new Toyota.
He imparts a piece of advice for drivers today:
“One piece of advice I would like to give to all drivers is to please adhere to the legal regulations concerning traffic.
“This will really help you, particularly when you stick to speed limits, and avoid using the phone will driving.”
