Answer

What should you do if your car starts smoking while driving in Mallorca?

Pull over as soon as it is safe to do so, switch off the engine, and get everyone out of the vehicle. Move away from the car and call emergency services if there are flames or heavy smoke. Do not try to open a hot bonnet if fire is already developing, because that can make the situation worse.
