Brisbane Driving Tips

The number one tip I can give you (probably only applicable for international tourists) is that in Australia we drive on the left side of the road. So keep that in mind when you are cruising around in your hire car the last thing you want to do on your holiday is get into a prang. It's weird that we drive on the opposite side of the road to other places in the world, do you know why that is? no me neither. It just seems strange, I would have thought it would have been much easier for everybody to have it consistent everywhere in the world.

Parking Tickets. We all hate parking tickets and Brisbane is notorious for issuing them. So save yourself the money and hassle and keep on top of your parking situation.

Toll roads. Yes there are Toll roads in Brisbane, some car suppliers include this in their cost others don't and they are forever changing their policies around this so the best thing to do it check with the pickup depot to understand what their particular policy on toll roads is that day.

Rental car insurance. Having insurance is always recommended, but make sure to check your travel insurance terms or credit card terms as in many cases they cover car rental insurance. You don't want to be paying double.
