The three occupants of the other car, a female driver and two male passengers, were taken to hospital by air and road ambulances.

Medical staff at Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow have described their conditions as serious.

The road was closed for more than eight hours following the crash while police continued their investigation at the scene.

Motorists were advised to use an alternative route.

Appeal for witnesses of crash on A83 near Tarbert

Officers are now appealing for witnesses to help them establish the cause of the collision.

“We are still keen to hear from any others who were in the area around the time of the crash, who saw what happened or maybe saw either car prior to the collision.”
