A. First up it might vary in each State of Australia but in Queensland, as a migrant, you are expected to obtain a Qld Drivers Licence, to drive in Queensland. In my case it was a matter of presenting the UK licence and taking a thirty question multi-choice test on Queensland Road Rules, (much like the hioghway code); they also ask you to read off an Optician's eye chart ... you know read the next to bottom line. I think the passmark was 25 out of 30. The UK licence was stamped 'Not Valid in Qld'. Hope that information is current.
