Police Scotland are appealing for information following the serious crash on the A941.
Road Policing Sergeant Alexander Bowser-Riley said: “I’m appealing for anyone who witnessed the collision or saw either the car or pedestrian beforehand, to come forward.
“In particular I would be extremely keen to speak to the driver of a white Ford Focus who was in the area at the time and may have vital information.
