Answer

Why are Mallorca residents worried about poor lighting on rural roads?

Poor lighting makes it harder to judge bends, oncoming traffic and road edges, especially on narrow stretches outside towns. In Mallorca, that becomes a bigger concern on roads where traffic moves fast and visibility drops quickly at night. Residents often say that lighting, markings and reflectors can make a real difference.
