This code describes an injury sustained by an individual operating a standing electric scooter who collides with a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle (e.g., motorcycle, moped). The incident must occur in a non-traffic environment, such as a parking lot, private property, or driveway. It specifically denotes the initial phase of treatment for the injury.

Apply this code when documenting the initial encounter for a patient injured while riding a standing electric scooter in a collision with a motorcycle, moped, or similar vehicle outside of a public roadway. This includes scenarios like an accident in a private parking garage or a recreational area not designated as a public thoroughfare.

• Ensure the documentation clearly specifies a "standing electric scooter" and not another type of scooter or personal conveyance.
• Verify the collision involved a "two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle" and not a bicycle, car, or pedestrian.
• Confirm the accident occurred in a "nontraffic" environment; traffic accidents require different external cause codes.
