Familiarise yourself with local road rules when driving around Tasmania. For instance, remember to always drive on the left side of the road and adhere to speed limits. Speed limits will be signposted on the sides of the roads, so keep an eye out for these. Remember that the Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) limit is 0.05.
Because of Tasmania's wet, snowy and changing weather, ensure you're prepared for diverse driving conditions (why not add on snow chains to your Turo booking for added peace of mind?). When driving at night, use your high beams and stay cautious of local wildlife, particularly when you're driving outside of the big cities.
Another thing to remember is to keep an eye out for one-way roads in Hobart and Launceston. In Hobart, Macquarie Street and Davey Street are two of the biggest one-way roads you might encounter.
In Hobart, the busiest times on the road are between 8.00 am and 9.00 am and between 5.00 to 6.00 pm. Prepare for higher traffic volumes on significant roads across the city, like Tasman and Brooker Highways. During peak hours, make sure to factor in extra travel time to get to your destination safely.
While public transport is available in Hobart, renting a car is highly recommended as it offers you the freedom to explore beyond the city limits. With stunning natural landscapes, historic sites, and charming towns waiting to be discovered, having your own wheels ensures you can make the most of your time in Hobart and its surrounding areas.
Whether you're planning day trips to picturesque locales or venturing into the Tasmanian wilderness, a hired car provides the convenience and flexibility to tailor your journey to your preferences.
