Donkey killed in accident north of Palma – residents and authorities alarmed

Answer

Why are country roads north of Palma risky for drivers at dawn?

On open stretches north of Palma, visibility is still poor at dawn and drivers often travel faster than they should. That combination makes sudden encounters with animals, such as donkeys or livestock, much harder to avoid. Extra caution is especially important on roads leading toward Valldemossa and the Tramuntana.
