Answer

Can a car in Mallorca be stopped if it does not have a valid ITV?

Yes. In Mallorca, a vehicle without a valid ITV can be stopped during a police check and may be taken off the road if it is considered unsafe. The ITV matters because it is meant to catch problems with brakes, steering, lights, and other essential systems. Driving without it puts both the driver and other road users at risk.
