Answer

How could ride-hailing change traffic in Palma and other parts of Mallorca?

The article raises concerns that more vehicles could add pressure to already busy areas such as Palma, especially during peak times. It also notes that narrow streets and local road networks on the island make transport planning more sensitive than a simple pro-competition debate suggests. Any expansion would need to account for traffic flow, availability and local conditions.
