A WOMAN has died following a rush hour crash between a car and lorry.
The smash happened at 8.20am today on the outskirts of Glasgow and involved a Vauxhall Corsa and a low loader.
Police, fire and ambulance crews were sent to the crash scene but the 60-year-old female driver of the Corsa died at the scene.
