Very funny and very true thread!!

WHEN the lights finally change and you want to turn right, please remember that you pass in front of the car turning right opposite you and not behind each other ala UK :scared: ...takes a bit of getting used to after years of doing it the other way.

And also remember (particularly seems to apply in WA, not sure about other states)...people seem to have absolutely NO IDEA how to use roundabouts AT ALL..EVER...(one erm lovely person thought it would be a good idea to STOP on a roundabout to let someone out of their car!! It isn't a busy roundabout...but honestly!!).. so be careful out there!!

Happy motoring peeps!

love sophia xx

I'm sorry but apart from freezing your genitalia and turning your arm into a lobster , all the above are just the same in Britain. As soon as anyone (except me, of course) passes their driving test, they completely forget how to drive. I am sick to death of 50 year old golfer in their b***dy BMW's driving around like they own the roads and will park where the hell they want - w****ers. Oops sorry, hormonal moment, do apologise

Also, you will more than likely get a fine if ol bill catches you driving along like that. Also things that may attract a fine from your local constabulary in oz are:

• Leaving your windows open (even slightly) whilst the car is unattended
• Being more than 3 metres away from your vehicle and leaving passengers under the age of sixteen unattended
• leaving the keys in your car whilst paying for fuel
• leaving the engine running whilst not in the vehicle
• leaving the vehicle unattended with the handbrake off

some points are quite obvious and common sense e.g. fines for talking on the phone but I didn't know about some of the others until I saw them on one of those current affair shows a week or so ago..

Grrrrr... just got back from shopping....

Don't forget to constantly adjust your speed pissing off the drivers behind you who are capable of maintaining a regular speed on a main road.

Weaving behind P platers is an acceptable practice... it tests thier distraction levels.

When turning left off a main road, make sure you enter the left lane at the VERY end cutting off the driver behind you who has entered at the beginning.

Ok I'm done ranting... can you believe I've only been driving for 5 months??

After one week in Oz.
Him: "If you need to park on the opposite side of the road, you do a u-turn so you are not facing the flow of traffic. You DO NOT park facing oncoming traffic. That is why we have wide roads, Sir."

Me: "Yes, sir, Mr. ossifer, Sir, Won't do that again, Sir, honest."

And I thought the wide roads were so the rednecks wouldn't hit anything after a session on the XXXX.
