The town is a popular destination with holidaymakers, so the roads can get busy. Therefore you should go for a compact car, which will help you navigate busy roads and also make parking in tighter spaces easier. For those that plan to go into the Australian Outback, then a more robust vehicle is recommended. For example, an SUV is a great choice that offers you 4x4 capabilities for off-road driving; always check directly with your agency whether off-road driving is allowed in the hire vehicle.

You need to stay within the speed limit when driving in Australia or you may receive a fine from the local police and be at an increased risk of accidents. If you’re driving on the motorway, you can’t go faster than 100-130 km/h. This changes depending on which road you’re driving on, so ensure you adhere to the signs. If you’re driving on rural roads that are not motorways, then the speed limit is 100 km/h, whereas, in Newman and other urban areas, the top speed is 50 km/h.
