The Fiesta was heading east when it was involved in the collision with the HGV near the entrance to the Fife Silica Sands quarry.

Fire crews from Dunfermline, Rosyth and Lochgelly worked on cutting the young man free from his car.

He had sustained serious leg and pelvic injuries.

He was then airlifted by helicopter to Glasgow’s Southern General Hospital.
