V42.0: Car occupant injured in collision with two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle : driver injured in nontraffic accident

The term "Car occupant injured in collision with two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle: driver injured in nontraffic accident" refers to a specific type of physical injury sustained by a driver of an automobile when involved in an accident with a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle under nontraffic conditions. Non-traffic conditions imply environments other than public roads such as driveways, parking lots, or private properties. Injuries may differ extensively in severity, ranging from minor cuts, scrapes, and bruises to potentially life-threatening conditions such as fractured bones, internal bleeding, or traumatic brain injuries. The type and extent of injuries often depend on factors like speed at the time of collision, use of seatbelts, airbag deployment, and the point of impact. Pain, discomfort, visible wounds, swelling, and functional limitations are likely signs of such injuries. Medical attention is generally required to diagnose and manage the consequent impairments.
