Objective: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data have shown that agriculture, forestry, and fishing as an occupational group have the third highest rate of work-related roadway crashes. Agriculture-related crashes have been explored in the Midwest and South; however, we know little about agriculture-related crashes in the Northeast, especially in New York. Methods: To better understand this, researchers obtained motor vehicle crash data from 2010 to 2012 from the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles (NYSDMV). These data were then filtered to agriculture-related cases by both vehicle registration type and vehicle body type. Results: We identified 203 agriculture-related vehicle crashes, involving 381 vehicles and 482 people. Of the agriculture incidents, 91.6% caused property damage, while 36.0% caused injury. The case fatality rate for roadway vehicle crashes was nearly five times as great (2.0/0.4 = 5.00) for agriculture versus non-agriculture crashes (p = 0.0003). Conclusion: Using these data as a supplement to the New York Center for Agricultural Medicine and Health's existing surveillance system provided information useful in setting priorities involving roadway safety.

纽约州农村地区与农业有关的机动车撞车事故特征。

目的：疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）的数据显示，农业，林业和渔业作为职业群体，其与工作相关的道路交通事故发生率排名第三。在中西部和南部已经发现了与农业有关的坠机事故；但是，我们对东北地区（尤其是纽约州）与农业相关的交通事故知之甚少。方法：为了更好地理解这一点，研究人员从纽约州汽车管理局（NYSDMV）获得了2010年至2012年的汽车碰撞数据。然后，通过车辆登记类型和车身类型将这些数据过滤到与农业相关的案例。结果：我们确定了203起与农业有关的车祸，涉及381辆车和482人。在农业事故中，有91.6％造成财产损失，而36.0％造成伤害。与非农业事故相比，道路交通事故的致死率几乎是农业事故致死率的五倍（2.0 / 0.4 = 5.00）（p = 0.0003）。结论：使用这些数据作为纽约农业医学与健康中心现有监视系统的补充，可为确定涉及道路安全的优先事项提供有用的信息。
