V81.0: Occupant of railway train or railway vehicle injured in collision with motor vehicle in nontraffic accident
The term "Occupant of railway train or railway vehicle injured in collision with motor vehicle in nontraffic accident" refers to incidents where a person, who is inside or on a railway train or other railway vehicle, is physically harmed in a collision with a motorized vehicle during a non-traffic accident. A non-traffic accident is one that does not occur on a public road. The visual and auditory senses, musculoskeletal system, and nervous system are typically affected by the unexpected impacts and sudden forces involved. The severity of the injuries can range from mild, such as bruises and sprains, to more severe and life-threatening, such as fractures, spinal and head injuries. The progression of the injury tends to depend on the force of the impact, the health status of the individual, and the medical intervention received soon after the accident.
