Well developed roads make driving a hired car in Australia pleasant. Nevertheless, there are some different traffic rules that you should know before you start your journey and which we have put together for you below.
Yes, there are toll roads, tunnels and bridges around Brisbane. It is therefore essential that you check with your car hire company whether your hired car is equipped with an appropriate transponder (E-day) that can be read out by the electronic toll system and how the payment is made. If your hired car is not equipped with a transponder, you can register with the relevant toll road operators and receive a reader. The reader and toll costs will then be charged to your credit card.
Australia has a 0.5 percent alcohol limit. Driving beginners, on the other hand, must adhere to a 0.0 per mil limit.
Signposted parking spaces can be identified by a large P (parking). You can keep it short in areas marked with a large S (standing). On all other areas, such as those marked with a large C (Clearway), parking and parking is not allowed.
If you plan to drive into the Outback with your hired car, you should preferably drive during the day, as there is a high risk of injury to a kangaroo at night and the risk of a car being damaged. In addition, you should bring enough drinking water and reserve fuel as well as a satellite telephone to be able to ring for help in an emergency. Special care must also be taken when overtaking the sometimes 50 m long lorry teams, and if you are involved in an accident involving personal injury, always inform the police.
