We had problems in Sydney, but I was driving a campervan at the time! Main thing there was how long it takes to get anywhere, even in a car, it takes ages to get through traffic. Just forget cars and rush hour.

Have to agree with people's comments regarding Brisbane and Queensland drivers. We've just come back from Aus , having visited Perth, Adelaide, Brisbane and Cairns. We also drove the Great Ocean Road. The standard of driving in Brisbane was appalling - we got the impression that people switch on cruise control and at the same time disengage their brains. It would be the main reason why we wouldn't move to Brisbane - in all honesty! We could both see us losing our licences through sheer frustration...

Thats you have all convinced me not to drive over there, when and if we get there. However we still have road rage here especially in the graveyard where i live, full of BLOODY OAPS that should have had there licences taken away long ago, and they even have the cheek to blame you. I don`t worry about supermarket parking now having just paid £120 quid to get to knocks out of car courtesy of trollies i now just take up two spaces far enough away from the old.
Sorry just got back from sainsburys after run in with rude, pain in arse eldery man. Who had the cheek to have a go at me for double parking and he was in a family space.
Sorry ranting over.

I haven't been faced with any road rage here yet but then I tend to make use of my 3.8L V6 power and assertive driving. Helps having a commodore wagon, people tend to not argue.
What I have found though is drivers when changing lanes, tend to indicate and go whether you are there or not, this took some getting used to as in UK you would wait to be let out. So I have now adopted their way and find people will let you out if you indicate and just push in, no worries! I don't hang around to be argued with.

Is this a competition to see which country has the best road rage?
In that case: In South Africa you get shot at or run off the road if you raise a fist or a finger at anyone so count yourselves lucky.

The commodore is hardly a speed machine an over weight piece of crap covers it , even the V8 is not going to set any speed records the V6 is way under powered for a tank.

My local supermarket have trolleys leaning against all the cars - not enough trolley bays - and lazy people. It's a prob in Aus too. Put this way if I had a Ferrari - I would be too scared to park it anywhere in Brisbane.

Agree with Dotty that Sydney's got much less traffic than London.
Thing that shits me up are the narrow lanes. 3 cars going each way with nothing seperating the 2 directions. It's a recipe for disaster. And Jesus when it rains and you can't see anything it really gets scary!
Getting a Nissan 350Z at the end of the month. Hope I survive long enough to enjoy it!

I'm glad to hear that Brisbane is the worst for drivers, it's a good job the rest of the country is better. As for driving along and suddenly finding the lane you're in ends in 200M and you have to force yourself over with noone letting you in.. I also see people stopping at the slip roads onto the motorway to wait for a gap, how mad is that?

First foot to the metal on slip road , then look for a gap do not try and indicate this gives the game away and the car behind on the freeway will run you off the road .
Beware of those who pull back and seem like they are giving you an even break , theres no quarter given in this game.
Watch out for Asian drivers over taking on the hard shoulder must be the custom in China.

I'd like to meet the person or persons who plan the roads here in Brisbane. Hope they are reading this! Wake up

You think that's bad? Where I live in Europe they only just got roundabouts and never got any training for them in the driving test (those that took a driving test, that is - most seem to have bribed their way through, judging by the driving). So once a week or so you meet people driving round the roundabouts the wrong way, keeps you wonderfully concentrated.

You think that's bad? Where I live in Europe they only just got roundabouts and never got any training for them in the driving test (those that took a driving test, that is - most seem to have bribed their way through, judging by the driving). So once a week or so you meet people driving round the roundabouts the wrong way, keeps you wonderfully concentrated.
