even been issued with a special government licence to drive in reverse anywhere
in the state, located in the county's north.

so basically he is so lucky so lucky
Mr Dev is a regular sight – and sound – around the area’s dusty streets, as he
uses an ambulance siren to warn unsuspecting drivers, and pedestrians, to avoid
him. “After five years of practice I have perfected the art of reverse
driving,” he said, adding that he took “all the care I can to protect other
drivers on the road”. "I always wanted to do something different, something
unique. “In simpler terms I reversed the complete gear mechanism of the car
so that I get maximum speeds while driving backwards.”
also can go 50 mph
He has even tried to break the Guinness Book of Records for driving in reverse,
after searching on the internet and finding a UK resident, John Smith, had
achieved such a feat. “Unfortunately I couldn't break the world record
because the Guinness Book authorities demanded non-stop video footage of my
whole reverse driving and I was unable to produce that,” he said.
He was also thwarted a few years ago attempting to drive in reverse from Rajasthan, in the country’s north-west, to Lahore in Pakistan in a bid to promote peace.
He failed because he didn’t have permission to cross the border.
