A man has been arrested after allegedly testing positive for cocaine following a crash on a Fife road yesterday.
The alleged smash occurred around 10.30am on the A92 near the village of Rathillet when an HGV veered off the road and struck a tree.
Photos taken of the vehicle show the left side of the windscreen smashed as a result of the impact.
Fife Road Policing rushed to the scene and the 67-year-old lorry driver was given a drug test, which allegedly showed he had the drug in his system.
The man was then arrested by cops in relation to alleged road traffic offences.
No other vehicle was involved in the incident and no one was seriously injured.
Officers say enquiries into the event are ongoing.
