V73: Bus occupant injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van
Bus occupant injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van refers to a group of injuries sustained as a bus passenger during a vehicular accident with a car, a pick-up truck, or a van. These injuries can range from minor (like cuts, bruises, and sprains) to severe and life-threatening (like broken bones, internal injuries, or head trauma). The exact type and severity of injury depends on factors such as the speed and force of impact, the location within the bus, and whether the passenger was using a seatbelt. Symptoms vary widely but often include pain, swelling, bruising, and tenderness. Over time, these symptoms may progress and complications may arise, particularly if left untreated. Such accidents can involve various bodily systems depending on the nature of the injury, including the musculoskeletal, neurological, and cardiovascular systems.
