Brief Answer:
no

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
Generally,highest risk factor for rupture is high blood pressure or abdominal trauma. Car driving or lawn riding isn't considered to be risk behavior unless there is accident during these activities. So it is impossible to predict rupture and it's cause but it shouldn't limit your daily activities. Wish you good health.
