41-Year-Old Man Dies in Fatal Ayrshire A77 Crash

Two fatal crashes occurred in Scotland on August 11, 2025, resulting in the deaths of two men. The first incident was a collision between a blue Renault Megane and an ambulance on the A98 at Arradoul near Buckie, where the 36-year-old driver of the car died at the scene, while two paramedics and a patient sustained non-serious injuries. The second crash involved a Ford Transit Tipper near the Sandyford Roundabout on the A77 in South Ayrshire, where the 41-year-old male driver was pronounced dead at the scene, with no other injuries reported. Both crash sites led to road closures for investigations, with the A98 reopening the following morning and the A77 reopening after about seven hours. Police Scotland is appealing to the public for information and dashcam footage to assist with ongoing inquiries into both incidents. Authorities expressed condolences to the families and friends of the deceased and emphasized the importance of witness cooperation.
