The two occupants of the Ford, a man and a woman, were also taken to hospital suffering from non life-threatening injuries.

Speaking to the media on Wednesday afternoon, Road Policing Chief Inspector Stewart Mackie said the force are still in the process of contacting the victims’ next of kin.

He added: “We do have a number of witnesses who have come forward but I would appeal to anyone who was on the A90 at that time yesterday afternoon who has seen anything or indeed has any dashcam footage to contact us.”

The A90 crash sparked a huge emergency response which involved three fire and rescue appliances, a heavy rescue unit, five ambulances, a helimed, and Scottish Ambulance Service special operations and trauma teams.

Four people had to be cut free from vehicles by firefighters.

Chief Inspector Mackie added: “Collision Investigators have been working throughout the night and we are hoping to open the A90 to traffic early this afternoon.

“I realise this will have created significant travel disruption to travellers and so I would like to thank them for their patience whilst we dealt with and continue to investigate this tragic incident.

“This would have been a difficult and harrowing scene for those who witnessed the collision and tried to offer assistance.

“I would like to express my gratitude for their efforts and to also thank the emergency services who dealt with this extremely challenging incident.

“My thoughts remain with everyone affected by this.

“If anyone witnessed the incident and hasn’t already spoken to the police I would ask that they contact officers on 101 using reference number 2576 of March 12.”
