V42.2: Car occupant injured in collision with two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle : person on outside of vehicle injured in nontraffic accident

The condition referred to by the ICD-10 code V42.2 pertains to an event in which an individual, specifically an occupant of a car, sustains injuries as a result of a collision with a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle. In this scenario, the accident occurs in a nontraffic area and the injured person is located on the outside of the vehicle. This type of condition often results from accidents involving cars and lighter vehicles such as motorcycles, scooters, or bicycles. The injuries linked to such accidents can vary greatly, ranging from minor cuts and bruises to more serious injuries like fractures, internal injuries, or head and spinal injury. The severity of the condition would hinge on factors like the speed at which the vehicles were moving at the time of the collision, the angle of impact, safety measures in place, among others.
