Answer

Can you be charged in Mallorca for driving without a license and drunk driving?

Yes, driving without a license and driving under the influence are both serious offenses in Mallorca and can lead to criminal investigation. If both happen together, the case is usually treated much more seriously because the danger to others is significantly greater. The court can then decide on penalties based on the full circumstances.
