This is a challenge first because you sit on the right side of your vehicle while the gear lever is on the left side. Depending on the car brand the blinker is on the other side too.<\/p>\n<p>But the most important thing while driving is to be careful\u00a0when you enter into the road. The cars come from the other side.<\/p>\n<p>If you are not sure where to drive in the roundabout, in doubt use the outer lane.\u00a0This way you can exit faster.<\/p>\n<p>Not only driving left can be a challenge, but also the road conditions.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-7201 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cityseacountry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Tipps-f\u00fcrs-Auto-mieten-und-fahren-in-Australien.jpg\" alt=\"Tips for driving in Australia\" width=\"888\" height=\"592\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cityseacountry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Tipps-f\u00fcrs-Auto-mieten-und-fahren-in-Australien.jpg 888w, https:\/\/www.cityseacountry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Tipps-f\u00fcrs-Auto-mieten-und-fahren-in-Australien-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.cityseacountry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Tipps-f\u00fcrs-Auto-mieten-und-fahren-in-Australien-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cityseacountry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Tipps-f\u00fcrs-Auto-mieten-und-fahren-in-Australien-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cityseacountry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Tipps-f\u00fcrs-Auto-mieten-und-fahren-in-Australien-100x67.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 888px) 100vw, 888px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Unpavedgravel_roads\"><\/span>Unpaved\/gravel roads<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Don&#8217;t underestimate the unpaved roads.

Especially while driving alone you have no one telling you where to go. Along the Limestone Coast or the Great Ocean Road it`s no problem driving without GPS. But driving in and out of cities like Adelaide or Melbourne I wouldn&#8217;t be able to find anything without the GPS.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Wildlife_Wild_Animals\"><\/span>Wildlife \/ Wild Animals:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This freaked me out the most while driving in Australia. Not driving on the left, but the passing animals. Kangaroos, koalas, echidnas but also parrots switch (or fly across) the road. Sometimes you see dead kangaroos or koalas next to the road and you find the famous signs with a kangaroo on it frequently. I didn&#8217;t have an accident, nor did a kangaroo or koala cross the road in front of me but I was constantly checking the road in front and next to me while driving which can be exhausting when you drive\u00a0alone.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7193 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cityseacountry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Tipps-f\u00fcrs-Links-fahren-in-Australien.jpg\" alt=\"Tips for driving in Australia\" width=\"888\" height=\"647\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cityseacountry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Tipps-f\u00fcrs-Links-fahren-in-Australien.jpg 888w, https:\/\/www.cityseacountry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Tipps-f\u00fcrs-Links-fahren-in-Australien-150x109.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.cityseacountry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Tipps-f\u00fcrs-Links-fahren-in-Australien-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cityseacountry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Tipps-f\u00fcrs-Links-fahren-in-Australien-768x560.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cityseacountry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Tipps-f\u00fcrs-Links-fahren-in-Australien-100x73.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 888px) 100vw, 888px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_fast_can_you_drive\"><\/span>How fast can you drive?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In South Australia you can drive outside towns 110 km\/h, in Victoria 100 km\/h.
