Officials say Peter Richards, who was driving the agricultural tractor tried unsuccessfully to avoid the collision.  He was uninjured but Haskins and a 20-year-old male passenger were transported to Upstate University Medical Center in Syracuse for treatment for what appeared to be non-life-threatening injuries.

Unsafe speed and poor road conditions are believed to have contributed to the crash.
