Serious fall at Port d’Andratx: Who protects cyclists on this route?

Answer

Why is the Port d’Andratx to Camp de Mar road risky for cyclists on Mallorca?

The stretch is narrow and winding, with limited space for bicycles as cars, buses and rental scooters share the road. Gravel on the verge and the frequent changes in traffic speed and direction heighten the risk for cyclists. Public discussion often focuses on individual behavior rather than on infrastructure and traffic management that could prevent accidents.
