A man is in hospital after being involved in a crash on the A90 near Foveran on Monday afternoon.
His Ford Transit collided with a stationary HGV on the A90 Fraserburgh to Aberdeen road.
Though the HGV driver was unharmed, the 36-year-old driver of the Ford was taken by ambulance to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary.
