V12.4: Pedal cyclist injured in collision with two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle : driver injured in traffic accident
Pedal cyclist injured in collision with two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle: driver injured in traffic accident is a diagnostic term referring to physical harm or injury incurred by an individual who is riding a bicycle and collides with a motorcycle, scooter, or similar two- or three-wheeled motorized vehicle while on a public road. The injury occurs while traffic is active, and therefore signifies that the incident is not occurring in a controlled environment, such as a race mark or a practice field. Injuries associated with this condition can vary significantly by nature and severity, including but not limited to, bone fractures, sprains, abrasions, contusions, traumatic brain injuries, and spinal cord injuries. It is important to note that this term specifies that the injured individual is the cyclist, not the driver of the two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle.
