The objective of this study is to reach a better understanding of accidents on Swedish roads involving tractors and to suggest ways of preventing them. In an earlier study we analyzed police-reported fatal accidents and accidents that led to physical injuries from 1992 to 2005. During each year of this period, tractors were involved in 128 traffic accidents on average, an average of 7 people were killed, 44 sustained serious injuries, and 143 sustained slight injuries. The number of fatalities in these tractor accidents was about 1.3% of all deaths in traffic accidents in Sweden. Cars were most often involved in the tractor accidents (58%) and 15% were single vehicle accidents. The mean age of the tractor driver involved was 39.8 years and young drivers (15-24 years) were overrepresented (30%). We are now increasing the data collected with the years 2006-2010 in order to study the changes in the number of accidents. Special attention will be given to the younger drivers and to single vehicle accidents. Based on the results we aim to develop suggestions for reducing road accidents, e.g. including measures for making farm vehicles more visible and improvement of the training provided at driving schools.
本研究的目的是更深入地了解瑞典道路上涉及拖拉机的事故，并提出预防这些事故的方法。在早期的一项研究中，我们分析了1992年至2005年警方报告的致命事故以及导致人身伤害的事故。在此期间的每一年，拖拉机平均涉及128起交通事故，平均有7人死亡，44人受重伤，143人受轻伤。这些拖拉机事故中的死亡人数约占瑞典交通事故总死亡人数的1.3%。汽车最常卷入拖拉机事故（58%），15%是单车事故。涉及的拖拉机司机的平均年龄为39.8岁，年轻司机（15至24岁）的比例过高（30%）。我们现在正在增加2006年至2010年收集的数据，以便研究事故数量的变化。将特别关注年轻司机和单车事故。基于这些结果，我们旨在提出减少道路事故的建议，例如包括使农用车辆更显眼的措施以及改进驾驶学校提供的培训。
