V49: Car occupant injured in other and unspecified transport accidents
V49.1: Passenger injured in collision with other and unspecified motor vehicles in nontraffic accident
"Passenger injured in collision with other and unspecified motor vehicles in nontraffic accident" refers to a specific type of physical trauma a person may sustain. This condition occurs when an individual, occupying the role of passenger, is involved in a nontraffic accident—an incident that happens outside public highways, such as parking lots, private roads, or other designated areas—that involves a collision with other motor vehicles that may not always be clearly identified. Nontraffic accidents are a common cause of such passenger injuries. The extent of the injury may vary, typically depending on the severity of the accident, including factors like speed and the size of the vehicles involved. The injury can be confined to one area, such as a broken arm, or be more widespread, causing multiple traumas throughout the body. Symptoms may include pain, bruising, swelling, and potentially loss of function in the affected areas. Diagnosis is mainly through clinical examination, radiological studies, and other diagnostic tests.
