Firefighters using cutting equipment rescued a woman after she was trapped when her car ended up on its roof today.
The accident, involving just one car, a Ford Mondeo, occurred just after 11.30am at the Forgan Roundabout on the A92 – about half a mile south of the Tay Bridge.
The extent of the woman’s injuries are not known at this stage but after firefighters released her she was transferred to a waiting ambulance before being taken to Ninewells Hospital in Dundee.

The road from the bridge to the roundabout was closed southbound by police while emergency services attended the accident.
