A motorcyclist has been airlifted to hospital with serious injuries after he crashed in to a lorry last night.
The collision happened on the A226 London Road, near Stone in Dartford soon after 10pm.
Police and the South East Coast Ambulance Service attended the scene at the junction of Tollgate Road, near the Welsh Tavern Pub.
An air ambulance was also called, landing at the nearby Stone Recreation Ground.
Paramedics assessed a 19-year-old man for injuries before he was taken to a London hospital where he remains in a serious but stable condition.
Three fire engines were also in attendance and crews worked to make the scene safe.
It comes just months after a man was killed on the same stretch of road when his car collided with a parked lorry.
Officers are appealing for any witnesses or anyone with dashcam footage to come forward.
Investigating officer PC James Galbraith said: "We would like to hear from any witnesses to the incident and any residents in the area who may have CCTV that covers the road.
"We are also appealing to drivers who were travelling along London Road at that time who may have dashcam footage of the motorcycle prior to the collision."
Call the appeal line on 01622 798 538 or email sciu.td@kent.pnn.police.uk quoting DB/JG/014/20.
