A motorcyclist killed in a crash with a car on the A82 near Luss has been named by police.

Andrew Jowett, from Paisley, lost his life in the collision after his blue Suzuki motorcycle crashed with a white Skoda Scala on Tuesday June 13.

The 37-year-old was rushed by ambulance to Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow where he later died.

Police said Mr Jowett’s family have been made aware and a report has been submitted to the Procurator Fiscal.

The incident occurred around 6.40pm on the northbound carriage of the road beside Loch Lomond.

Sergeant Brian Simpson, Dumbarton Road Policing Unit, said: “Our thoughts remain with Andrew’s family and friends.

“Enquiries are ongoing into the crash and I am appealing for anyone, not already been spoken to by police, who witnessed the crash or saw the two vehicles prior to the collision, to get in touch.

“I am particularly keen to hear from the drivers of a dark coloured Volkswagen Touareg and a white Arnold Clark hire van who were in the area at the time. It’s possible they may have information or have dash-cam footage that will be of help to our investigation.

“Anyone with any information, including dash-cam footage, is asked to contact 101 quoting incident number 3676 of June 13, 2023.”
