Health guidelines for drivers updated

Bus and truck drivers can continue to drive with well-managed health conditions under new guidelines developed by the Road Safety Authority and the Royal College of Physicians of Ireland.

The ‘Sláinte agus Tiomáint Medical Fitness to Drive Guidelines’ provide health professionals and drivers with a much clearer understanding of their obligations.

Guidelines for cars and motorcycle drivers have also been updated to reflect recent developments in medicine, such as improvements in diagnosis and treatment of medical conditions.
