Answer

Is traffic policing enough to make Mallorca streets safer?

Police checks can help, especially at known problem spots, but they are usually only one part of the solution. In Mallorca’s busier urban areas, safer streets also depend on street layout, clear signage, speed control and how public transport is scheduled. Lasting improvements usually need a mix of enforcement and physical changes to the road itself.
