Car driver injured in collision w 2/3-whl mv nontraf, init

This code identifies an injury sustained by the driver of a car involved in a collision with a motorcycle, scooter, or moped. The incident must have occurred in a non-traffic environment, such as a parking lot or private driveway, and represents the initial treatment for the injury.

Apply this code when documenting the initial encounter for a car driver injured in an off-road collision with a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle. This would include scenarios like a car backing out of a driveway and hitting a motorcycle, or a collision in a private parking garage.

• Ensure the patient was the driver of the car, not a passenger.
• Verify the collision involved a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle (e.g., motorcycle, moped).
• Confirm the accident occurred in a nontraffic area and this is the initial encounter for care.
