Beware on the Roads: DGT Introduces 'Radares Remolque' – Safety Tech or Silent Ticket Machine?

Answer

Are trailer speed cameras in Mallorca meant to improve road safety or just issue fines?

The official argument is that they improve road safety by targeting speeding in places where the risk is higher. Critics worry that the same systems can feel more like a quiet fine machine, especially if they are used without clear public notice. In Mallorca, the real test will be whether they actually reduce accidents and dangerous driving, not just increase ticket numbers.
