Car insurance in Oz - is it like the UK or more like Europe?
Discussion
I'm going over to Oz in late Dec / early Jan and wondering whether to rent a car out there (will be in a Melbourne suburb) or whether I can drive my mate's car.
Now, in the UK, to drive a car legally, your name must be on the insurance policy as a main or named driver, or, in some cases, your policy might allow you to drive another person's car with their permission on a 3rd party only basis.
In some Euro states eg. Spain, my understanding is that the car is insured and can be driven pretty much by anyone.
