<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the possible correlation between the driver's occupation and male semen quality.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Semen samples were collected from 1,223 infertile men (78 drivers and 1,145 non-drivers) and 100 normal men, and their liquefaction, sperm density, sperm vitality, sperm motility and sperm shape were analysed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The abnormal rates of semen quality in sterile male drivers were significantly higher than in non-drivers(P < 0.05) and in normal men(P < 0.01). The semen abnormal rates in drivers with more than 8 years' driving experience were higher than in those with less than 8 years' driving experience(P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Driving occupation can result in abnormal semen quality.</p>
