  • Familiarise yourself with your rental. Fix your seat and mirrors, find the lights and blinkers, and get used to its handling before you set off. And remember to stick to the left side of the road in Australia.

  • Make sure you follow the local speed limits. In general that's around 45kph in urban areas and 95kph or so on highways, unless road signs indicate differently.

  • A blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit of 0.05% applies in Australia. The most reliable way to be safe to drive is to avoid drinking completely.

  • You'll be using the Australian dollar (AUD) here. Along with your credit and debit cards, have some cash on hand for smaller purchases.
