Second fatal accident on the Camí de la Síquia — Why does this stretch remain dangerous?

Answer

Why is the Camí de la Síquia in Palma considered dangerous for drivers and motorcyclists?

Residents and investigators point to a mix of factors: a tight bend, weak lighting, wet surfaces when it rains, and traffic from delivery vans and motorcycles sharing the same stretch. The road layout appears to leave little room for error, especially at night and in the early morning. That combination can make even a short section of road unusually risky.
