Fatal head-on crash on the PM-401: Why does the road remain dangerous?

Answer

What should drivers do in Mallorca when roads are wet and visibility is poor?

On rainy Mallorca roads, it is sensible to slow down, leave extra distance and avoid sudden steering or braking. Wet surfaces can become slippery quickly, especially on rural roads with bends and limited lighting. Fatigue also increases the risk, so drivers working night shifts should be especially careful.
