“However, he remains in hospital for observations.

“Thank you for all the supportive messages. Enquiries continue & anyone who witnessed this can call 101 and quote 1746 of February 27.”

It was one of three crashes on the A92 yesterday afternoon which caused problems for commuters.

Shortly after the road was reopened, a van left the carriageway and ended up in some trees near Lochgelly.

There was also a crash at the Five Roads Roundabout near Kilmany, when a Mini and a Nissan were involved in a collision having been required to take evasive action due to other road users.
