A 45-year-old man has been charged following a serious crash involving a motorbike and car.

An air ambulance and other emergency services were scrambled to the A95 Aviemore to Aberlour road, near Ballindalloch, at about 3.35pm on Thursday.

A 21-year-old motorcyclist, who was on an orange KTM, was airlifted to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary with serious injuries.

The driver of the car, a grey Volvo S90, was uninjured.

Officers this morning launched an appeal for witnesses and have since charged a 45-year-old man in connection with the crash.

He will appear in court at a later date and a report will be submitted to the procurator fiscal.

The road between Bridge of Avon and Craigellachie was closed for about four hours, while a collision investigation was carried out.
