In simple words: This code is used for a follow-up visit for a driver of a large truck, armored car, or panel truck who was injured in a collision with a car, pick-up truck, or van in an area that isn't a public road. This code doesn't describe the injury itself, but the situation that caused it.

Driver of a heavy transport vehicle injured in a collision with a car, pick-up truck, or van in a nontraffic accident, subsequent encounter. This code describes the circumstance causing an injury, not the nature of the injury. A heavy transport vehicle includes an 18-wheeler, armored car, or panel truck, but excludes buses and motor coaches. A nontraffic accident is any vehicle accident that occurs entirely in any place other than a public highway.

Example 1: A truck driver is injured in a collision with a car on private property, such as a loading dock. This is the driver's second visit for this injury., An armored car driver is injured in a collision with a van in a parking lot. This is a follow-up visit related to the initial injury., A panel truck driver is injured when their vehicle collides with a pickup truck in a field. The driver is being seen for a subsequent encounter for this injury.

Documentation should support that the patient is the driver of a heavy transport vehicle, the collision involved a car, pickup truck or van, the accident was a non-traffic accident, and that this is a subsequent encounter for this injury.
