Answer

Does car technology prevent microsleep accidents in Mallorca?

Driver-fatigue warnings and other assistance systems can help, but they are not a complete solution. In Mallorca, they should be seen as support rather than a replacement for rest, careful scheduling, and sensible transport planning. The main protection against microsleep is still not driving when you are dangerously tired.
