No. You can not legally ride a bicycle at night without lights anywhere in Australia except on private property. It is covered in The Australian Road Rules which applies the same law Australia wide. AUSTRALIAN ROAD RULES – REG 258 258—Equipment on a bicycle A person must not ride a bicycle that does not have: (a) at least 1 effective brake; and (b) a bell, horn, or similar warning device, in working order. AUSTRALIAN ROAD RULES – REG 259 259—Riding at night The rider of a bicycle must not ride at night, or in hazardous weather conditions causing reduced visibility, unless the bicycle, or the rider, displays: (a) a flashing or steady white light that is clearly visible for at least 200 metres from the front of the bicycle; and (b) a flashing or steady red light that is clearly visible for at least 200 metres from the rear of the bicycle; and (c) a red reflector that is clearly visible for at least 50 metres from the rear of the bicycle when light is projected onto it by a vehicle’s head
