Pasngr in hv veh injured in clsn w 2/3-whl mv in traf, init

This code signifies an individual who was a passenger in a large transport vehicle (e.g., bus, truck) and sustained injuries during a traffic accident involving a motorcycle, scooter, or moped. The collision occurred on a public roadway or similar traffic area.

Apply this code when documenting injuries sustained by a passenger in a heavy transport vehicle involved in a crash with a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle. This is appropriate for the initial treatment of the injury.

• Ensure the patient's role was specifically a passenger, not the driver, of the heavy transport vehicle.
• Verify the other vehicle involved was a two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle, not another type of car or truck.
• Confirm this is the initial encounter for the injury; subsequent care would require a different seventh character.
