V80-V89: Other land transport accidents

V86: Occupant of special all-terrain or other motor vehicle designed primarily for off-road use, injured in transport accident

The group of conditions represented by V86 describes injuries incurred by the occupant of a specialized vehicle, such as an all-terrain vehicle, during a transport accident. These vehicles are designed primarily for off-road use, and accidents may happen due to their challenging operating environment and high-risk activities associated with them. Injuries range from minor, such as cuts, bruises, or sprains, to serious, such as head trauma, broken bones or spinal cord injuries. The symptoms and disease progression depend on the severity and location of the injury, as well as individual factors like age, general health condition, and exactly how the accident occurred. These injuries can affect multiple body systems, including skeletal, neurological, and circulatory systems. In general, these conditions are not transmitted, but arise directly from the mechanical trauma associated with the accident event. The immediate cause is typically a sudden impact or violent motion, but underlying factors can include equipment failure, unsafe behavior, inadequate safety gear, or hazardous terrain conditions.
