Bus occupant injured in collision with pedestrian or animal: passenger injured in nontraffic accident (code V70.1) refers to an injury sustained by a passenger travelling within a bus as a result of a collision with a pedestrian or an animal in a non-traffic context. This circumstance is generally unexpected and the injury can vary in severity, potentially affecting any part of the body. It might include, but not be limited to, fractures, strains, sprains, contusions, or internal injuries. The specific nature and effect of the injury would depend on factors such as the force of the collision and the physical condition of the individual involved.
