Two critically injured women were admitted to a Sohar hospital, an official from the Royal Oman Police told Khaleej Times.
The accident occurred when the driver of a Land Cruiser lost control of his vehicle, which then skidded off the road and turned turtle, leading to the death of four passengers.
Three persons were killed instantly while another died on the way to hospital, the official said. They were proceeding from the Khutmat Melaha area to Sohar. According to the police, speeding was the reason behind the accident. The deceased were from the Emirate of Fujairah in the UAE.
The Sultanate of Oman, especially its northern parts, was lashed by heavy rains on Friday. An Omani woman was washed away while crossing a wadi on Friday.
Nine Emiratis and one person of a different nationality died in a horrific road accident in northern Oman last month when an electrical transformer fell from the back of a pick-up truck, hitting a car.
So far 25 Emiratis have died in road accidents in Oman this year.
