Road closed after lorry drivers seriously injured in crash

Two lorry drivers have been taken to hospital following a serious crash in Fife.

Police said the incident, involving two HGVs, happened on the A91 between Auchtermuchty and the B937 at Birnie Loch at around 7.50am on Saturday.

The drivers and sole occupants of the trucks – two men aged 34 and 49 – were taken by ambulance to Ninewells Hospital in Dundee with serious injuries.

The road has been closed for investigation works.

Sergeant Colin Morrison said: “This was a serious crash which has resulted in two men being taken to hospital with severe injuries. 

“Our enquiries into the cause of the collision are continuing and I would urge anyone who saw what happened, and has not yet spoken to officers, to come forward. 

“I would also ask motorists who were using the A91 this morning and may have been recording via dashcam devices to check their systems and provide any relevant footage to us as soon as possible. 

“The road will remain closed until our crash investigations are complete and I would urge the public to avoid the area until the road reopens.”
