Fire Trucks (Emergency
Response Vehicles) - Are You Driving Safely?
Initial Email Enquiry –
I have included some graphic material from the Fire-fighter Close Calls web
site to illustrate the results of inappropriate Emergency Fire Appliance Driving
(EFAD) . Here on Teesside we are just about to embark on our EFAD refresher
training which for the very first time will be structured and in line with
Unit FF9 of the IPDS National Occupational Standards. The package designed
by Gerry Johnston (in conjunction with Minding Driving) of Fulcrum Consultants
provides a unique opportunity for our fire-fighters to have professional training
under blue light conditions on the public highway ensuring the highest safety
levels are being adhered to at all times whilst responding to emergency calls.
