Nobody was injured in the crash.

It is the second dramatic incident at the Kinness Burn in St Andrews this year.

The road has been closed and the car is due to be recovered.

A police spokeswoman said: “Around 11.50am on Thursday, February 11, we received a report of a one-vehicle crash on Kinnessburn Road in St Andrews.

“The road has been closed. No one was injured in the incident and uplift of the vehicle has been arranged.”

Second crash at Kinness Burn this year

It is the second incident involving a car crashing into the Kinness Burn this year.

On Thursday, January 7 a BMW was left balancing over the watercourse after smashing through the barriers on Kinnessburn Road.

No one was injured in the incident, which occurred following a spell of cold weather.

It comes just days after the watercourse was labelled the “Irn Bru Burn”, drawing comparisons to Willy Wonka’s chocolate river, after contamination turned it orange.
