Roads were poor, and there weren't any fast vehicle areound.
Increased stopping distance-danger of hydroplaning
On dry roads with ABS, around 46 feet.
The distance to stop depends upon a lot of factors, eg:type of road surfacecondition of tyresstate of road surface (icy, dusty, wet, dry, etc)effectiveness of brakesThe stopping distance given in the Highway Code is based on assumptions that have not changed even though brakes, etc have improved. They are calculated as distance to stop in ft = (speed in mph)² ÷ 20For 50 mph the physical stopping distance is 50² ÷ 20 = 125 ftThe Highway Code gives the emergency stopping distance as this distance plus the thinking distance which is given as 1 ft per mph which at 50 mph is 50 ftThese distances are converted to metres:Emergency stopping distance = thinking distance + physical stopping distance= 50 ft + 125 ft = 175 ft≈ 15 m + 38 m ≈ 53 mThis is the shortest distance based on good brakes, good tyres, dry road. For worn tyres, wet or icy roads, etc increase the distance by a factor of 2, 5, 10 etc.
According to Google, the distance between Adelaide and Mt Isa, if traveling on roads is 1883km.
This is against the law in any state or country when traveling/driving on public roads. The offender will be cited and possibly arrested and the vehicle impounded.

It's what it sounds like - a vehicle intended to be used where there aren't any roads, or very poor roads.
Driving distance is the total distance in miles or kilometers that you would need to drive to get from one location to another, typically measured using the road network. It accounts for the actual distance you would cover on roads, rather than the straight-line distance between two points. It is commonly used for planning road trips and estimating travel time.
Quite a bit especially if your tires are worn down to or below the tread depth limit.
The roads helped the missionaries as they made traveling easier, quicker and safer than undeveloped areas.
