The speed limit is 100 km/h on open roads and the default speed is 50 km/h in metropolitan areas. International visitors are free to drive in WA for up to 12 months if they have a full licence. Be mindful of the weather conditions which could cause delays or pose a risk to drivers; heavy rain in less-populated areas can cause the roads to become quite hazardous, while intense heat could cause car (and driver) problems.
