Latest crash on A92 near Muchalls
On Friday, a crash involving 16 cars and a lorry took place on the same stretch of road.
Police, fire and seven ambulance crews, two special operations response teams and a trauma team attended the incident.
One car crashed through a garden wall on the side of the road and ended up on its side against a tree.
Other cars were dented and strewn across the road at different angles, alongside debris and broken glass.
Four people – a 21-year-old woman and three men aged 23, 40 and 58 – were taken to hospital for treatment.
The road was closed for about six hours for the clear-up, which caused significant disruption on the AWPR due to traffic being diverted.
