That web page is (obviously) aimed at foreigners. Australians don't<br>
consult the web to find out what the time is ... When talking about<br>
things for outsiders, it is natural to call things "Australian xxx"<br>
(whether it is beaches, schools, or timezones). A web site aimed at<br>
foreign tourists might very well give details about Australian beaches,<br>
or Australian roads, or even Australian time - but inside Australia<br>
you're very unlikely to consider that you're driving on this Australian<br>
road to get to some Australian beach (at some Australian time).<br>
