The passenger's condition has since been described as stable and the driver was uninjured.

The road was closed while police carried out investigations, and re-opened at around 12.30pm the same day.

Sergeant Craig McDonald said: “We’re appealing for anyone who may have witnessed the crash or was in the area at the time to get in touch.

“I would also ask if there are any other motorists with possible dash-cam footage or anyone with information that may help with our investigation to contact police.”

Anyone with information can call Police Scotland on 101 quoting incident number 1054 of Sunday, 4 December, 2022.
