V26.3: Motorcycle rider injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle : person injured while boarding or alighting
The motorcycle rider injured in a collision with another nonmotor vehicle describes an incident where a person on a motorcycle collides with an unmotorized vehicle like a bicycle, cart, or animal-drawn vehicle. It also covers the scenario where a person is injured while getting on (boarding) or getting off (alighting) their motorcycle during the collision. Such accidents can result in various types of injuries, from minor to severe. These might include skin abrasions or "road rash," fractures, head trauma, spinal injuries, or even internal damage. The severity and type of these injuries generally depend on factors such as the speed of the collision, the use of safety gear, and the nature of the impact.
