Emergency Services Driving Standard (ESDS) is the driving standard which has been developed for Emergency Service Drivers in Ireland. It is overseen by the Road Safety Authority (RSA).
ESDS aims to
• develop and sustain a spirit of cooperation, caution and courtesy in emergency service drivers
• reduce the risks associated with driving emergency service vehicles
• ensure that patients and passengers are safe and comfortable
• foster the attitude that responding to an emergency should
never involve actions which could lead to the death or injury of any person
