This code signifies an injury sustained by an individual who was positioned on the exterior of a bus when that bus collided with a non-moving object within a traffic environment. The injury occurred during the initial presentation for care related to this specific incident.

Apply this code when documenting injuries to individuals such as bus surfers, individuals riding on the exterior steps, or those otherwise externally attached to a bus that subsequently crashes into a stationary object like a pole, building, or parked vehicle. This code is appropriate for the initial medical evaluation and treatment of these injuries.

• Verify the collision involved a fixed or stationary object, not another moving vehicle.
• Confirm this is the initial encounter for treatment of these injuries.
