Important information about Brisbane car rentals

There are more than 15 car rental locations in Brisbane, making it convenient to get a vehicle. You should be able to get either an economy car rental or a luxury car rental in Brisbane, and you can book one in advance through momondo. There are tolls on some of the roads, but you can get a 30-day toll pass on the Internet, which will make it faster for you to get through and save you money. Parking is easy to find for a fee throughout the city, and you can easily park and then walk or use public transport when you are in the downtown area. There is something for everyone in Brisbane. If you like shopping, you can visit the Queen Street Mall or one of the unique boutiques in the South Bank area. There are museums of fine art, historic theaters, and many other cultural attractions. If you just want to relax, you can enjoy the beautiful beach areas just a short drive away.

Is it worthwhile to rent a car while visiting Brisbane?

There are a variety of public transportation options within the city, but you will have more freedom to go where and when you please, and be able to easily see some famous attractions nearby if you get a cheap car rental in Brisbane. Parking is abundant in the city in large lots and metered parking on the streets. Most parking lots charge a fee per day, but many allow you to reserve a space in advance and save money. The highways going in and out of Brisbane tend to get a bit slow during the morning and evening rush hours, so be prepared to take longer to get to your destination if you must travel during these times. There is a Chinatown in Fortitude Valley, which is a short drive north of Brisbane, and the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coastal areas are both a reasonable driving distance away.

What different driving laws should I keep in mind while driving in Brisbane?

Most of the driving rules will be similar to what you are used to, but there are a few things you should be aware of when driving rental cars in Brisbane. Do be aware that you must drive on the left side of the road and the driver sits on the right side of the vehicle. Traffic circles are common, and if you aren’t used to driving on the left, take extra care when entering and exiting one. Everyone must wear a seat belt and you cannot use your cell phone while driving car rentals in Brisbane. The blood alcohol limit for a drunken driving violation is very low, so it is best to have a designated driver who isn’t planning to drink at all when you dine out. It is always recommended to check with the department of motor vehicles when you arrive for any changes in the laws.

Will I need a special driver’s license or permit to drive a rental car in Brisbane if I’m visiting from another country?
