AN appeal has been launched following a road crash near the Cowdenbeath interchange on Wednesday morning.

Road Policing Officers are continuing their enquiries and appealing for information following the incident at around 7.10am.

The crash involved a Honda Civic, Ford Focus and a Volvo lorry.

Emergency services attended and the 68-year-old driver of the Honda and her 61-year-old male passenger were both taken by Ambulance to the Victoria Hospital in Kirkcaldy.

Hospital staff describe their condition as stable.

The 46-year-old driver of the Volvo lorry and the 36-year-old driver of the Ford Focus were uninjured.

Sergeant Michelle Burns from the Road Policing Unit at Glenrothes said: “Our enquiries are continuing to establish the cause of this road crash. The road was busy at the time and I would appeal to any witnesses who have not yet spoken to officers to contact us. I would also ask anyone with dash-cam footage to come forward.

“Anyone with information should contact us through 101 with reference 0408 of 8 December.”

Police slam drivers over mobile phone use

Fife Police Division's Facebook page has hit out at SEVEN drivers who travelled past the above incident and filmed it on their mobile phones whilst those involved in the crash were treated by emergency services at the scene.

One van driver had no hands on the wheel, police stated.

A statement said: "Fife Road Policing attended this RTC on the A92 today (Wednesday); disappointingly seven drivers went past filming the scene on their mobile phones whilst the injured driver and passenger were present.

"One van driver even had no hands on the wheel and we issued him a conditional offer for 6 points on his licence and a £200 fine.

"The other six drivers can expect a letter and/or a knock on their door by us as its simply not acceptable and we have their details!

"It's dangerous, illegal and inconsiderate for the people involved in the RTC's so please consider that and keep your phones away."
