Ensure your hired car is in good condition before departing Medindie, checking tyre pressure and fluid levels. Carry extra water and snacks in case of unexpected delays. Be cautious of weather changes, as rural areas can experience rapid shifts in conditions. Use your headlights during low visibility periods and be prepared for areas with limited mobile phone coverage. Lastly, plan your route in advance and inform someone of your travel plans when venturing into more remote areas of South Australia.

How should visitors prepare their rental cars for extreme heat conditions common in South Australia?

Ensure all fluid levels, especially coolant, are topped up before embarking on long journeys. Consider carrying extra water not just for yourself, but also for the vehicle in case of overheating. Park in shaded areas whenever possible to minimise interior heat buildup. If your hired car has leather seats, consider using seat covers to prevent burning. Always carry a basic emergency kit including sunscreen, hats, and extra water. By taking these precautions, you'll be better prepared to handle the intense South Australian heat during your travels from Medindie.
