Default Driving in Queensland

Anyone (like myself ) wanting to swot up on the rules and regs of driving in Queensland before leaving the UK will be able to buy this book and have it shipped across to England for the all inclusive price of $28.55 if they use this website [url]www.koalakonnection.com.au/shop.htm. Dont know if its the cheapest site available but it could well prove invaluable in the long term.

Or you can wait to get to Queensland and buy the official Queensland Transport's 'Your Keys to Driving in Queensland' booklet for $14.

Driving in Queensland's just like driving in GB except for the whole green light versus green man thing which still confuses me - but that's only a drama in built up cities.

Actually that's the book in question $10.05 & $18.50 for shipping.Its just that i'd rather have it in advance to learn before arrival to try and beat those funny aussie scenarios which will no doubt confuse the hell out of me !!! :scared: !!!

You can print a PDF file off you know, and probably significantly cheaper and less hassle than getting the book/s shipped

True - but then you would have to put a staple in the corner - and staples are well expensive
