V33.2: Occupant of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van : person on outside of vehicle injured in nontraffic accident
The title, "Occupant of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with car, pick-up truck, or van : a person on outside of vehicle injured in nontraffic accident," refers to a specific scenario in which a person, while either riding on or situated outside of a three-wheeled motor vehicle, sustains injuries due to a collision with a car, pick-up truck, or van. This accident occurs in a nontraffic situation, indicating that it does not take place on a public road or highway, but could occur in a space such as a parking lot or private property. The types of injuries sustained can vary greatly depending on factors such as the speed of the collision, the physical placement of the person on or outside the vehicle, and whether safety devices like helmets were in use. These injuries may affect various body systems, potentially resulting in head injuries, broken bones, lacerations, internal injuries, or spinal damage. It's important to note that even if no immediate injuries are visible, any accident should be followed up with a thorough medical examination to assess any potential unseen damage.
