V61: Occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with pedal cycle

V61.3: Occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with pedal cycle : unspecified occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in nontraffic accident

The ICD-10 V61.3 code refers to a situation where an unspecified occupant of a heavy transport vehicle has been injured in a nontraffic collision with a pedal cycle. This takes into account any individual involved in the incident, whether they were driving or simply present in the heavy transport vehicle at the time of the accident. In such cases, the nature of the injuries sustained can vary widely, depending on the specifics of the collision. These might include, but are not limited to, physical trauma such as fractures, abrasions, contusions, internal injuries or even psychological stress related to the accident. The severity of the injuries can depend on factors like the relative speed of the vehicles, the protective measures in place, and the size disparity between the heavy transport vehicle and the pedal cycle. This code does not specify where exactly the accident happened, as long as it was not in traffic.
