This code describes an injury sustained by an individual who was in the process of getting on or off a bicycle when they were involved in a collision with a car, pickup truck, or van. The injury occurred during the initial presentation for this specific incident.

This code is appropriate for documenting injuries to a person who was mounting or dismounting a pedal cycle at the time of impact with a motor vehicle (car, pickup, or van). It should be used for the initial encounter for treatment of these injuries.

• Ensure the patient was specifically boarding or alighting the pedal cycle, not actively riding it.
• Verify the colliding vehicle was a car, pickup truck, or van.
• Append the appropriate subsequent or sequela encounter character for follow-up care.
