As with the rest of Australia, you must drive on the left side of the road and abide by all speed limit signs.

While you're unlikely to encounter animals on the road in the city, you might see them if you're driving in more rural areas. If you see one on the road, slow down carefully and stop if needed. Do not swerve, as it can cause you to lose control of your vehicle.
Roads in the town area of Devonport roads are usually well-maintained and sealed. However, you might have to cross unsealed dirt or gravel roads when heading to more rural parts of Tasmania. They're especially common along roads leading to natural attractions.
