Getting a car for work

Hello guys, upon reading most stuff about getting a job in OZ, a car is more oftenly required. Aside from being a transpo necessity, it seems to be a ticket for your work.

To those who are already in OZ and have or having a car, could you please share some tip or experiences? :(

    Wala pa ako sa OZ, pero pinakamalaking adjustment siguro is yung right hand drive hahaha! Nung namasyal kasi ako sa SG, nahilo ako sa road lanes e hahaha! nagcab ako from the airport yung sinasabi ng utak ko sa isang lane liliko yung taxi pero sa kabila lumiliko sa tunay na buhay (labo) haha

    nagtitingin tingin na din ako ngayon ng makukuhang sasakyan, para mas mabilis lang biyahe. Natakot ako isang beses medyo nalate ako ng uwi, 4 lang kami sa bus then 3 black guys. Kinakalampag nila yung window, pansin ko mga egoy magugulo badtrip. Pero isang beses ko pa lang naman naranasan.

    Hopefully this week makakuha na ko ng ride.

    ganon talaga ang adjustment dito, nahihilo ako kasi RHD sila, ngayon try ko ipasa yung DKT saka mag enroll na naman ako ng driving para ma familiarize ko yung RHD, sana pumasa para makabili na ng car, mas madali makabili dito kasi daming car, Aust $ 2K, ayos na. Mas mahirap ang pagkuha nga license.
