V72.2: Bus occupant injured in collision with two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle : person on outside of vehicle injured in nontraffic accident

The ICD-10 code V72.2 refers to an injury sustained by an individual, specifically a bus occupant, during a collision with a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle, and the incident occurred during a non-traffic accident. The person was not inside but on the outside of the vehicle at the time of the collision. This diagnosis is primarily associated with incidents involving public transportation and motorbikes, scooters, or bicycles. The extent of injury can significantly vary depending on various factors such as the speed of the vehicles involved, the mechanics of the accident, the point of impact, and the precautions taken by the bus occupant. Injuries could range from minor abrasions, bruises, or sprains to more severe, potentially life-threatening conditions like fractures, internal injuries, or traumatic brain injuries. As this is a purely situational code, there may not be a standard presenting symptom, as it would largely depend on the specifics of the injury.
