A FEMALE driver escaped injury this morning after her car collided with a barrier near Kincardine.

Police officers received reports of an incident on the A985 at the Longannet roundabout at 8.03am as a black Ford car came to rest on the soft verge of the road heading towards Dunfermline.

Both police and an ambulance were quickly in attendance and although the car was towed away from the scene, a police spokesman confirmed the driver was uninjured.
