This code describes an injury sustained by an individual who was a passenger in a three-wheeled motor vehicle involved in a crash with an immovable object, such as a tree, pole, or building, occurring on a public roadway. The injury is being treated for the first time.

Use this code when documenting the initial treatment for a passenger injured in a collision where a three-wheeled motor vehicle strikes a stationary object like a guardrail or traffic sign. This applies to accidents that occur on any public thoroughfare, including highways, streets, or parking lots open to public traffic.

• Ensure the patient was a passenger, not the driver, and the vehicle was three-wheeled.
• Verify the collision was with a fixed or stationary object, not another moving vehicle or pedestrian.
• Confirm this is the initial encounter for the injury; subsequent care would require a different seventh character.
