This code signifies an injury sustained by an individual who was a passenger in a three-wheeled motor vehicle involved in a collision with a train or other railway vehicle. The accident occurred in a non-traffic area, such as a private crossing or rail yard, and the patient is presenting for follow-up care after the initial treatment.

Apply this code when documenting subsequent encounters for a patient who was injured as a passenger in a three-wheeled vehicle during a non-traffic collision with a railway train. This includes follow-up appointments for wound care, physical therapy, or monitoring of injuries sustained in such an event.

• Ensure the "D" seventh character is appropriate for a subsequent encounter, indicating ongoing care for the injury.
• Verify the patient was a passenger and not the driver, and that the vehicle was specifically three-wheeled.
• Confirm the accident involved a railway train or vehicle and occurred in a nontraffic setting.
