Police Scotland has paid 1m in compensation to the family of a woman who died after being left for three days in a crashed car on the M9 motorway.

The force has settled a compensation action taken by the family of Lamara Bell, 25, after they sued over its failure to respond to a call from a farmer who had spotted a crashed car lying off the hard shoulder in 2015.
