What does Code 964 refer to?

Code 964 refers specifically to a collision with unknown injuries. This terminology is utilized by law enforcement to indicate that, at the time of reporting the incident, the extent of injuries involved in the collision has not been assessed or communicated. It is vital for dispatch and responding officers to understand that while a collision has occurred, the situation regarding injuries might still be evolving or unclear.

In contrast, other codes like those denoting minor injuries or fatalities provide more specific information about the severity of the injuries, which would be more definitive than the label of "unknown." By using Code 964, first responders are alerted to the need for further assessment upon arrival at the scene to determine the necessary medical response for individuals involved.
