Answer

How do alcohol and drugs affect driving safety in Mallorca?

Alcohol and drugs slow reaction time, reduce coordination and make it much harder to judge speed, distance and danger. On Mallorca’s roads, that becomes especially risky at night, when visibility is lower and traffic can still be busy around the airport and coastal routes.
