A biker has died following a crash with a car.
The 49-year-old man was riding a black Suzuki motorcycle when it was involved in a collision with a white BMW in Rosyth, Fife.
The incident happened at around 5pm on Sunday on Queensferry Road at the junction with Aberlour Street.
Emergency services attended and the man was pronounced dead at the scene.
The driver of the BMW was not injured. The road was closed for around six hours for a crash investigation.
Road Policing Sergeant Scott Kirkpatrick said: “Our thoughts are with the family of the man who died at this very difficult time.
“Our investigation into the crash is ongoing. This is a busy road and we are appealing to anyone who has not already spoken to officers and who has any information that could help with our inquiries to please contact us.
“I am also keen to speak to any drivers who have dashcam footage that may assist.”
Anyone who can help is asked to call Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident number 2363 of March 31 2024.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
