The 17 year old and 23 year old men didn't have any serious injuries. The road was closed for several hours but has now re-opened.

Anyone who saw either of the vehicles on the road last night or witnessed the crash are asked to contact the police.
Opposition to wind farm challenge
Two local councillors have spoken out over plans for a wind farm in the Logiealmond area of Perth. The company behind the plans held an open day yesterday to residents of Bankfoot and Dunkeld. Vattenfall applied for consent previously, but it was thrown out by the council. Councillors Alistair Wyllie and John Kellas say the wind farm is the wrong thing in the wrong place. A public enquiry will be held in August.
