V12.0: Pedal cyclist injured in collision with two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle : driver injured in nontraffic accident
The condition, categorized as V12.0, revolves around injuries sustained by a pedal cyclist in a nontraffic accident due to a collision with a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle, specifically the driver. This can involve a wide range of injuries depending on the severity and mechanism of the accident, commonly including fractures, bruising, lacerations, and soft-tissue injuries. It encompasses injuries that occur off the road or elsewhere not on a public road such as private premises or car parks. Despite being referred as nontraffic, the implications can still become serious with potential injuries to critical areas such as the head, chest, or abdomen affecting the fundamental functions of the body. The symptoms depend on the injury type but commonly ranges from pain and swelling to more severe situations like unconsciousness or difficulty in breathing.
