Safety in the Outback
Although driving in the Outback is actually very safe and suitable for a normal family car, you still need to respect the vastness of the land and its unique features. By making sure that you are safe and well-organized, your car rental trip in Australia will be most enjoyable with lots of unique memories to remember it by. Before setting out on your exploration of the Outback, here are some helpful hints to remember to keep you safe!

• Make sure that someone has a copy of your itinerary and that you arrange times to contact them throughout your driving trip.
• You should always have up-to-date maps in the car to guide you on your way.
• Check with locals for specific road conditions, availability of fuel, and current and upcoming weather conditions.
• Do not overload the rental car with too much luggage or too many passengers.
• Carefully check your planned route and make sure it coincides with current maps.
• Plan times and checkpoints to refuel your car rental. This requires some advance planning because gas stations in the Outback are often open for a limited time period.
• Carry lots of water with you in vehicle. The general rule is to allow at least four litres of water per person per day.
• Make sure you have sufficient amounts of fuel and food with you at all times.
• Do not stray from the route that you have planned. Stay on track to avoid getting lost or running out of fuel.
• If your schedule permits, avoid driving at dusk, night, or dawn as wild animals might stray onto the road and find themselves in your path.
• If by some chance you happen to have a problem, do not leave your vehicle! Cars are much easier to locate than are people by themselves.
• Contact the Transport's Office of Road Safety for their "Guide to Safe Touring in Western Australia." It comes with helpful suggestions and information that concerns wildlife, four-wheel drive, unique driving conditions, and how to drive long distances.
