    QUESTION: first time ko let's say sa Australia then gusto ko sana magfamiliarise sa pagdadrayb sa city or sa town or suburb. Ano ba ang pinakamagandang maiaadvise para sa mga first timers na tulad ko?

    wise bang bumili na agad nang segundamanong sasakyan at magdrive around sa mga towns?

    ano ang pinaka quickest or pinaka madaling paraan para mafamiliarise sa lugar at traffic rules at saka traffic lights nila im sure naiiba ito : )

    I haven't lost everything except my mind...

    @thegreatiam15 ako po gumamit ng gps kahit papunta lang ng shop. ahaha! iyon una kong ginawa para mafamiliarize iyong road and gain confidence, papasok sa school and pagpunta sa mga shops and church. and read sa road rules nila what the arrows /lines are for na nakaguhit sa road., sa umpisa nakakalito pero pag may routine na madali na lang.

    nagstart na din ako magbasa basa sa mga post ni bossing totoy

    question sa Google maps ba yung navigate for driving kapag ginamit mo yun tinuturo nya ba yung proper laning?

    although stay left nga tayo ang question is paano kung yung road One way sana yung google hindi sumablay haha or fool proof pa din?

    @thegreatiam15 naexperience namin iyan, napasok kami sa bus lane. hahaha! good thing it was a weekend. the GPS will tell you like 1 km kung turn left or right or eexit or stay in the lane, but you should also know if there are bus lanes. hehe.

    Hello po,

    Clarify ko lang po re using Ph DL sa Au. May kelangan pa ba na papers say learner's permit bago makapag-drive sa Au or no need na?
    Ang 1st destination ko kasi e Perth, stay muna ng ilang weeks then papaturo ako about Au driving at para
    ma-familiarize. However, ang final desti ko talaga e NSw since naka SS ako dun at dun na ako kukuha ng Au DL.

    Hope maliwanagan po ako dito. TIA
