Driver of dune buggy injured in nontraffic accident, init

This code signifies an injury sustained by an individual operating a dune buggy during an incident that occurred off a public roadway. The injury is being treated for the first time.

Apply this code when documenting an initial encounter for a driver injured in an off-road dune buggy accident, such as during recreational activities on private property or designated off-road trails. This code is appropriate for injuries occurring outside of typical traffic thoroughfares.

• Ensure the patient was the driver of the dune buggy, not a passenger or pedestrian.
• Verify the accident occurred in a nontraffic setting.
• This code is for the initial encounter for treatment of the injury. Subsequent care will require a different encounter character.
