V41.3: Car occupant injured in collision with pedal cycle : unspecified car occupant injured in nontraffic accident

This condition refers to injuries sustained by a car occupant due to a collision with a pedal cycle (such as a bicycle) in a non-traffic accident. This term encompasses a wide range of possible injuries due to the nature of these accidents. They may include, but are not limited to, cuts and bruises, fractures, internal injuries, head or spinal injuries. The severity can range from minor soft tissue damage to critical organ damage. Since this code applies to unspecified occupants, it could relate to any individual in the car at the time of the collision. This condition is not tied to a specific disease or illness, but rather to an event of accidental harm. It should be noted that the categorization of nontraffic means the accident occurred somewhere other than a public highway. Medical attention following such an accident is vital to properly diagnose and treat the resulting injuries.
