V82: Occupant of streetcar injured in transport accident
V82.7: Occupant of streetcar injured in derailment without antecedent collision
The term "Occupant of streetcar injured in derailment without antecedent collision" refers to a situation where a passenger in a streetcar gets injured following the derailment of the streetcar, where there has been no prior collision. The derailment, in this case, is spontaneous and not as a result of the streetcar hitting into another object or vehicle. The types of injuries sustained from such an incident can range from minor to severe depending on the intensity of the derailment and where the occupant was located inside the streetcar. Injuries might include fractures, abrasions, contusions, or even traumatic head injuries. The progression of these injuries depends largely on their severity and the promptness and effectiveness of the initial medical response.
