This preparation ensures you won't be caught out in Queensland's vast landscapes.

Are there any challenging driving areas or situations to be aware of in Brisbane?

Pack plenty of water and snacks, as distances between towns can be vast. Plan your route carefully, identifying rest stops and petrol stations along the way.
