Introduction

If you are an Indian student studying in Australia, it is important to know the laws governing the country and its people. You should also know about safety precautions for yourself and your loved ones back home. Here is a list of things that every student needs to keep in mind when they travel abroad:

Know the laws of Australia – it is different from India.

The Australian culture is very open-minded and friendly. However, it is important to follow the laws of Australia and refrain from doing anything that can make you lose your visa or visa extension.

Australians are strict about the road rules in their country. Suppose you drive on an Australian road with a foreign driver’s license or an international driving license (IDL). In that case, you must obtain an Australian driver’s license as soon as possible by taking a practical driving test and passing that test before getting your original IDL replaced with an Australian one.

The same applies for motorcycles: if someone has been riding in India for more than 12 months but does not have enough experience riding on roads with traffic signs when he/she goes overseas

Be careful when you are out late at night.

  • When you are out late at night, it is important to keep your group together.
  • Avoid walking alone at night.
  • Be aware of your surroundings and keep an eye on any suspicious people or cars that might be following you. If this happens, don't hesitate to call the police! They will help you out if something goes wrong.
  • Keep your phone on you at all times while in Australia! Don't trust strangers because they could try to pickpocket or mug other students like yourself (and they've been known to succeed). You should also avoid carrying too much cash around with yourself as well; remember that Australia has strict laws regarding currency exchange rate fraud so don't risk losing money by being careless here!

Use trusted mobile service providers.

  • Use trusted mobile service providers.
  • Make sure you have a plan that covers international roaming.
  • Check the coverage of your mobile service provider and make sure your phone is unlocked, so it can be used in Australia without being locked by the carrier or manufacturer.
  • Don't use public WiFi; it's not secure and may contain malware or viruses! Also avoid using free WiFi at cafes or coffee shops – there's no guarantee these networks are safe either! If you really need to use one of these networks but aren't sure how secure they are, ask someone else first before connecting to it yourself (this could save your data from being intercepted).

Stay connected with your family back home.

You can also keep in touch with your family and friends back home. Use social media to share photos, videos and posts about what you are doing while studying in Australia.

You can also use email to keep in touch with friends and family back home. The process of sending emails may seem tedious at first but after a few days it will become second nature for you!

If video calls are allowed by the school where you study abroad then make sure that they're used wisely so as not to disrupt any work assignments or deadlines set by teachers or professors alike!

Avoid carrying too much cash in public.

  • Carry only what you need, and only carry small amounts of cash in public.
  • Don't keep too much cash in your wallet or bag. If it's not needed for an immediate purchase, leave it at home or put it back into your pocket when you're finished with it!
  • Always keep a few hundred dollars on hand if you're going out on the town with friends; this way they can cover any expenses that might come up while they're with you (such as taxis).

Trusting strangers can be dangerous.

Don't give out personal information to people you don't know and trust. Make sure that the person has your best interests at heart by asking questions, such as "How do I get to [location]?" If they tell you they're lost, stop and call for help. If they want something from you, politely say no and walk away (even if it's just a drink of water). Don't accept food or drinks from strangers unless they're in an emergency situation such as when someone has collapsed on the street or fallen ill with some sort of illness—and even then only use them sparingly!

Respect the road rules.

  • Always wear a helmet while riding a motorcycle.
  • Always wear a seat belt while driving.
  • Always obey the traffic signals and road signs, such as stop signs, pedestrian crossings, etc., even if you think they are not there.
  • Drive at the speed limit (unless it is unsafe). It is best to drive slowly on highways because they have less traffic than other roads in Australia but still make sure that you stay within the posted speed limit!

Save important contact numbers on your phone and carry a written copy too.

  • Make sure you have a working phone, charger and SIM card as well as an extra battery for it in case of emergency. If you are using a new phone, check if there is an app that allows you to store all the contacts from your previous phones in one place so that they can be easily accessed when needed (this is especially useful if you have multiple SIM cards).
  • Keep all important documents such as passport, visa and insurance card handy at all times while travelling abroad; this will help in case there is any problem with documentation or visas during the course of stay in Australia.

It’s always better to stay safe, than to be sorry

It’s always better to stay safe, than to be sorry. This is a universal truth. And if you want to make sure that your safety is top notch, then it's time for a little bit of advice!
