Answer

What makes country roads in Mallorca more dangerous at dusk?

In Mallorca, visibility can drop quickly at dusk, and that makes bends, lane edges and roadside obstacles harder to judge. Roads with limited shoulder space or weak markings leave less room for error if a driver drifts off line. That is why visibility checks and reflective markings matter so much on rural routes.
