American here: I don’t get it. Is the traffic really bad? The weather? Why is a 13 hour drive so bad?

Drove from a few hours north of Melbourne to Brisbane a few years ago. 20 hours straight. You’re not wrong.

If you want to stop along the way, sure. If you are just doing it direct, you’re insane.

Well, like, that’s a bit far for a single day drive, but not out of bounds. Particularly if you have two drivers and can switch, it seems pretty normal?
- w2qw ( @w2qw@aussie.zone ) 3•1 year ago
Fair enough but after renting a car and paying for fuel you might as well just fly and then you don’t lose a whole day.

Canadian here. That’s pretty par for the course in western Canada. Edmonton to Vancouver (the capitol victoria is a further 1hr drive with 1.5 hr ferry) is a 12hr drive. 2 fuel pitstops for humans and the car. Easily doable.

Yeah, I don’t know why OP made this about NA you lot have similar distances up there.
Driving capital city to capital city, Sydney to Canberra or melb to Canberra are the only semi reasonable distances. Everywhere else it’s a full day driving minimum even to an adjacent state. Ymmv tho.
Because you can drive in 2 hours through some countries and a mountain range.

I mean, if you pick two places in America that are close and two places in Oz that aren’t. New York City to Los Angeles is a 41 hour drive

drove from Philly to Boston with a stop in NYC and it honestly wasn’t that bad
with that being said I would never dream of driving from Brisbane to Canberra again. next time I want to see snow I am flying down — the return trip was the worst.
I know they’re totally different distances but even to Sydney is a stretch for me these days.
don’t even get me started with driving north of Brisbane…
