Answer

What makes junctions on Mallorca rural roads so dangerous?

Junctions on Mallorca’s rural roads can be difficult because visibility is often poor and traffic moves quickly through narrow connecting roads. If stop signs are missed or drivers and cyclists enter at the same time, the risk rises sharply. Heavy service traffic and agricultural vehicles add another layer of pressure.
