Motorists are facing delays after a lorry caught fire on the A90.

Emergency services received reports of the blaze near Forfar in Angus at around 1.30pm on Wednesday.

Fire crews set about extinguishing the flames while police closed the northbound carriageway and put diversions in place.

No one is thought to have been injured in the fire.

The incident came hours after a fatal crash between a lorry and a car on the same road near Dundee.

Police said bad weather has reduced visibility and warned motorists to reduce their speeds and turn their lights on.
