V34.5: Occupant of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with heavy transport vehicle or bus : driver injured in traffic accident
The ICD-10 code V34.5 pertains to an accident involving the driver of a three-wheeled motor vehicle who has sustained injuries after colliding with a heavy transport vehicle or a bus in a traffic incident. This code is specifically meant to record motor vehicle incidents and does not provide information on the type or severity of the injuries sustained. In such accidents, the driver may experience a variety of injuries including, but not limited to, fractures, dislocations, internal injuries, or even neurological trauma. Depending on the severity and type, these injuries may impact various systems in the body such as the musculoskeletal, circulatory, or nervous systems. The severity and progression of the condition post-accident are largely dependent on the nature of the injuries, the speed and force of the collision, and the immediate medical response.
