The medical condition described by ICD-10 V67.5 is specific to the driver of a heavy transport vehicle who has been injured in traffic due to a collision with a fixed or stationary object. This incident usually results from either road traffic accidents or lack of proper vehicle control, leading to injuries. In such circumstances, the driver could sustain various forms of physical harm. These may include bruising, broken bones, head or spinal injuries, or internal damage. The impact of the injury is often determined by the severity of the accident, the speed at which it occurred, and the protective measures employed at the time such as seatbelts or airbags.
