Answer
Does a negative alcohol test mean a driver was not at fault in a Mallorca crash?
No. A negative alcohol test only means alcohol was not detected; it does not rule out other causes of a crash. Fatigue, distraction, a health problem, or a vehicle fault may still be relevant and need to be checked.
