QUOTE(y_owez @ Jun 7 2010, 09:15 PM) do i need to bring passport also? isour msian license valid for ID proof for us in melbourne? like clubs/casino? u can use malaysian license to drive, but u might need to bring IC with u too, coz the cops think the malaysian license is a joke coz its laminated... bring passport to those places bit troublesome and if lost...:S yea...bit diff the traffic rules with the hook turns.... my license is in BM? some ppl say need to convert to English version or something 3 months valid...that's why need to get infos from u guys!! and also for car rentals, example budget,racv rentals wahtever company, can I rent the car? what kinda details are needed? plan for maybe car trip once a while.. thanks!! No, OFFICIALLY you CANNOT use Malaysian IC or drivers license as an ID, but SOME places accept it (like Crown, but depends on luck la, if security u dealing with knows about Malaysian IC and license or not)... Best to just use Passport or get proof of age card... Yea u can rent car with Malaysian license... Did that 2 weeks ago actually, took a drive to Port Campbell... No need any details, just license, and they do the rest... oh need credit card too if im not mistaken, or debit card, or some form of payment la... dono if they accept cash or not...

QUOTE(b3ta @ Jun 7 2010, 09:08 PM) so it totals to about 237 bucks? Around that lah.does the RTA provide a car to use during the test? or do u use your own. and the supervised driving lessons aren't provided by the RTA are they Your own car or you can use the driving school's car (remember that your car must be in tip top condition or you fail instantly, all lights must work, speedo must be accurate, wipers must wipe and so on lah) Supervised lessons are like Malaysia, go to driving school and ask for an hour or two to make sure you know your shit. QUOTE(y_owez @ Jun 7 2010, 09:08 PM) but not my remaining relative ? I mean still got my parents back in msia? I mean, get your brother and sister to sponsor you lorh. Driving: i mean, i see from the Vic road, that Msian license need to convert or sit for their Aussie license instead? and some traffic rules different le... and the test is in manual? ( sorry written test then need to wait 1 year smtg like that?? Just use Malaysian license, just don't memalukan us by crashing into an old lady or something. Common sense. The test can be in either manual or auto, if you take your test with a manual you get a Class C license, if you take the test with an auto, you get a Class CA (Automatic), meaning you can't drive manuals. But really, who gives a shite. Take the written test today, take the practical test tomorrow. All good. |
