You forgot to include that there are no passport requirements and checkpoints as you travel throughout our continent, unlike some other continents around our globe.
Many of us don't think too much of travelling 500KM in a day (single driver, Brisbane to Rockhampton) yet on our last trip to NZ, one B&B owner was truly astounded that we had travelled 100KM in one day over there. Apparently it's just not done. Same story when we self-drove around the UK, the lodgings people didn't believe our travel rate.
That image really illustrated what we Aussies take for granted on a daily basis.
