As you travel further south, mobile phone reception does become weaker. Many city-based mobile phones on Optus, Vodafone, Virgin and other smaller carriers will not work in many areas of the Huon and Channel. Telstra NextG mobile phones provide the best coverage, although this is not guaranteed in all areas.
Observe speed limits. 50 km/h in built-up areas, otherwise 90 km/h on sealed roads and 80 km/h on gravel.
Watch out for wildlife - particularly at night.
Be observant of other drivers
Always notify somebody if you are going bushwalking and carry a NextG mobile phone if possible.
Carry an EPIRB if boating and wear life jackets.
