Not true. OZ only allows 1 year then you must take Aus driving test again to convert to aus DL.

Malaysia driving lic is not recognised in australia after 1 year.

I guess you drove illegally and never got caught or never have to buy a car?

I can confirm, only need to convert within a year after you get your PR.

Was stopped by police for rego issues, showed them my msian dl(was still on my 457 visa), didnt have any problems.

As long as your visa is temporary, they can't force you to take aus DL.

Hope you did not drive like msian ,list below:

Never looked into the mirrors before changing lane

never indicate when turning or changing lane

always make sudden change

dont know give way rules

never stop at stop signs (always rolling stop)

never follow speed limit

Only have problems with the stop sign.

Always have to resist the urge to not stop when I can see there are no cars in sight.

It is very counter-intuitive to driving sweat.gif
