Your safety
While Australia is generally regarded as a safe place to live, taking responsibility for your safety is still important. Here are some tips:
- Be aware of vehicles on the road and only cross the road at the pedestrian crossing (black and white lines going across the road) or at traffic lights when the man is green.
- Keep your valuables close to you and zip up bags. Don’t leave your phone unattended or where it can easily be snatched.
- Try to avoid being out alone late at night and stay in busy, well-lit areas.
- Make sure these numbers are in your phone:
- 000 – for emergency use only e.g. fire, ambulance, police. Use it only in life-threatening situations, if a crime is in progress or if a fire is out of control
- Police Assistance Line – 131 444
- State Emergency Service – 132 500. Use for help in floods or storms
- Poisons Information Line – 131 126
- Lifeline – 13 11 14. Use for personal crisis counselling. It is a free service
- Emergency Translation – 1300 655 010
- If swimming in the sea or a river, swim only in the area between the yellow and red flags. If you get into trouble in the sea, try to stay calm and raise your arm to attract the attention of a lifeguard.
- Don’t walk in the bush on your own and if you decide to enjoy nature by having a bushwalk with friends, let someone else know where you are going.
- Some snakes and spiders in Australia are dangerous. If you encounter a snake, do not approach it and keep still while it moves away.
- Find out where your nearest medical centre, hospital and police station are located.
